Anyway to eliminate the far right nutbags?

[JEDI]

or did the Repubs jerry rig the districts such that they're a shoe-in 4 re-election?

 

[monovillage]

Isn't "eliminate" just a synonym for killing? You have a political movement you disagree with and you want to murder them?

 

[trenchfoot]

The last thing the Dems want is to have those nutbags eliminated. These extremists and the tactics they employ makes the Dem Party look like a far better choice every time these whackos open their mouths or start taking hostages to "negotiate" a deal for themselves.

The Grand Old Party is just that.....OLD. The younger generation that's pushing the old timers aside are predominantly from the Tea Party class of 2012. They are young, they are brash and bold and they are eager to take over the reins from the old timers. These young'uns just "know better" and they have fresh ideas and are chomping at the bit to show the old timers how to get things done.

Armed with gerryrigged invincibility, they want to take Washington by storm.

And look how well they've been doing lately! HA! Can't wait for them to grow up and behave like adults....if ever.

Some people's children I tell ya.....

Without gerryrigging the Republicans would be out of business.

47.15% for Romney. Out of business? Talk about delusional.

It would fit their classic MO, it's very Stalinesque.

Should we just have a one party system? Is that what you wish for; advocate for? Man that would just be a Utopia.....not.

 

[Mr. Pedantic]

Create a country with a secular constitution in an exciting new unexplored land.




Oh...wait.

Should we just have a one party system? Is that what you wish for; advocate for? Man that would just be a Utopia.....not.

One party would be better than two. Three parties would be better than two. Literally every single number other than two would be better than 2.

Even four.

Madness is something that takes people over slowly and a bit at a time. Republicans have gone more and more insane with each stage building on the last. When the insanity reaches kinds of extremes as it has today where the whole nation is endangered it becomes more difficult for folk who are behind the curve in their own insanity to take such a giant step. The number of true believers and absolute fanatics begins to wane. The energy of the psychotic explosion gets spent and insanity starts searching around for new and fresh cults in which to grow. The sick can be twisted and twisted but fresh meat becomes harder to obtain. Religious fanatical cults like the Republican party run out of sheep because they build a bridge too far.

The popular vote is distorted because of the electoral college, which has the effect of making democrats skip voting in blue states unless there's some interesting ballot initiative or something, since there's no point voting when your guy will win anyway (of course a paradox results if everyone thought like this, but enough don't understand the representative system). The same isn't true for republicans since they're commanded to vote (and who to vote for) by their religious leaders and evangelicals have a turnout of something like 80%

Anyway to eliminate the far left nutbags?
While we are at it, let's get rid of Crackers, Dagos, ******s, Beaners, Kikes and Towel Heads. Get over yourself and realize that it takes all kinds of people to make this world go round. Left wingers are throwing the most nastiest barbs I have ever witnessed in my life. All morality seems to have been lost.

Brilliant, except that contempt for stupidity/ignorance is reasonable and understandable in a democracy, whereas contempt for people of a particular race/ethnicity isn't reasonable (it's stupid/ignorant).

And anyone that doesn't agree with your agenda becomes stupid/ignorant and a justifiable target.

My agenda? Anyway, it would be okay/reasonable if he had just left it at "any way to eliminate the far left nutbags," but he went on to include racism as analogous, which is very telling. Interesting that you missed this.

 

[CanOWorms]

They're domestic terrorists, possibly causing more harm to this country than even Osama Bin Laden. The only reason they're not being targeted by drones and Seal Team Six is because of white privilege. Make gross abuse of white privilege a felony and they'll all be in jail.

What I don't understand is that when I have driven cross country and been to places that vote Tea Party I have never met these crazy lunatics. Are they in their basements posting on forums and not out in the real world?

It's worth noting that the Democratic party is really lousy too. It's just that the Tea Party has made the Republicans look so absolutely terrible that the Democrats look like brilliant politicians in comparison. They aren't. Our whole political system is corrupt and not serving your best interests.

I wish people would be smart enough to realize what is their best interest.

Nope, I think you're full of shit, mono. It's not that you don't agree with his agenda that causes him to despise you, it's the depth of your insanity that frightens him. Reason is terrified of lunacy and has no way to comprehend it. Reason sees that that the way your brain defect controls your thinking is tremendously dangerous. Nothing is more terrifying than a insane person whose insanity consists of thinking he's sane. It's your utter madness that's terrifying. It can't be stopped, it can't be controlled, and it can't be changed. You are proud to be a monster, chock full of hubris and vanity.

What reason can't comprehend can only be understood by feeling. You are insane and he fears becoming like you. He can't feel his own madness so he doesn't know he's just like you. Only if you can see and accept your own madness can you ever stop fearing it or pretending it doesn't exist.

IMHO, the lefts reaction to the right is far more nuts.

Calling people they disagree with terrorists?

Terrorists is probably the wrong word. However they are fundamentalists and that is why people are calling them terrorists.

Not people. The left.

They are calling them terrorists as part of a well orchestrated campaign, which aims to demonize and marginalize anyone that does not fit the liberal agenda.

If you label your opponents terrorists, you don't have work with them.

And that's the point, the left doesn't want compromise, they are hell bent on destroying republicans so they can do whatever they want.

 

[Londo_Jowo]

Wow, another thread from someone with hurt feelings.

The past day or so has been hilarious.

 

[poofyhairguy]

Good news: Due to the decline of religion in America the religious right is losing power.

Bad news: The generation of conservatives replacing them might be worse from the lefts perspective. Compassion is completely going out the window, as is the ability for the left to point out the hypocrisy that they don't follow communist Jesus's teachings.


Personally I think the left will long for days of battles over ten commandment monuments, abortion and gay marriage when the new group of conservatives are twisting the political process to undo societal safety nets.

Without a religious distraction conservatism becomes the "fuck you I got mine" party.

 

[Anarchist420]

what's the difference between far right and far left? aren't they both totalitarianism?

anyway, humanity has had a tendency towards authoritarianism/monarchy (even joseph stalin was a david duke style nationalist), and hitler liked new ideas and could easily come up with them (which made him a liberal psychologically), but he was a fascist who hated communism, even though his monetary policy was kind of a plank of the communist manifesto.

never forget what rothbard said about the far left wanting/needing power so they teamed up with the already established fascists to create an empire.

original progressivism was not much at all like the 60s new left as the former was a business plot, the latter was anarcho-communism.

hitler's fascism was progressivism.

stalin was a nationalist and possibly a tsarist without realizing it.

i dont believe that all men are created equal and if Jefferson really thought about it, then he'd have realized that he was not from the same species as me and washington originally were.

and at the same time, the nationalists like stalin and hitler were wrong because they didn't seem to realize that the State can neither abolish nor significantly alter biological origins.

so fuck nationalism and fuck globalism and please dont forget that the latter arises from the former.

 

[Anarchist420]

in other words, those who favor a one world govt do so because the global elite want their nation to control all the other nations... that's what a one world govt would be doing and it would make secession nearly impossible and civil war much worse.

that said, it is only reasonable to conclude that the solution to reducing war is not globalism and not nationalism, but setting a good example via voluntary decentralization.

You probably did meet them and just didn't realize it. In casual interaction most seem like any nice polite normal person. Steer the conversation to politics and it's like flipping a mean crazy switch.
