MOBILITY 1

SHELTER 4.7

IN COMPARISON, THE AVERAGE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT IN YOUR COUNTRY IS 24 ACRES PER PERSON.

WORLDWIDE, THERE EXIST 4.5 BIOLOGICALLY PRODUCTIVE ACRES PER PERSON.




IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 3.1 PLANETS.

Heh. He spouts of "anti-liberal" as if the whole meaning of liberal hasn't been mangled by right-wing newspeak, then talks about somebody else using "bleat political slogans like a mindless sheep."

From webster.com

liberal: a political philosophy based on belief in progress, the essential goodness of the human race, and the autonomy of the individual and standing for the protection of political and civil liberties

If being against the above defines what you stand for, I feel quite sad for you.

Actually, in American politics "liberal" has come to mean leftist, socialist, nanny-stater and in some cases, authoritarian socialist.

But then, the "true meaning of liberal vs the political meaning" has been debated to death already.

Thank you, that is exactly my point. You used the political slogan form of liberal, but in the very same sentence chastized somebody else for using "bleat political slogans like a mindless sheep."

Hi pot. You're black too.

Um, no. I used the commonly accepted term to describe a political ideology.

You have no point.

Go find another nit to pick, OK?

Point is you are a hypocrite.

How is using a commonly used definition of a word "hypocritical?"

The only thing that ended here is any point you may have thought you had.

Using a commonly accepted definition of a word is not the same as bleating mindless political slogans.

And if you think I'm a "right winger" you're even more inclined to mindless knee-jerk reactions than I thought.
