I love to refer to them as brain defects because the nature of the defect is excessive defensiveness. You have tried to suggest there's something wrong with me. I don't care. There are 16 peer review studies I can turn to in order to learn about myself. Why would I worry about your opinion. I know also that you see me as pretending to be superior owing to a sever self confidence problem, the exact thing conservatives have that I call a mental defect. You see in me the truth about yourself. The difference between us is very slim. I just have 16 peer reviewed studies that say you are talking about yourself, not me.

Good lord you are painful to read, its like a radical religious nut but instead its radical science theology. There are probably 1600 peer reviewed weather predictions that all have proved out to be wrong. We had "peer reviewed" scientists claiming the earth was flat. Ironically, proving the earth was in fact not flat will be far easier than proving out your wild 'Oh god I need them to be true to make myself feel better' irrational beliefs.

Tell me, in these 16 "peer reviewed" studies, did they determine how the information to answer the questions got in the "fear center", and why? Let me guess...they didn't.

Agreed. But without the evil Rep party, who is going to protect us from the just as evil Dem party? We've seen what one party control gets us, from either side, and it's worse than two party gridlock.

Again you fail to realize that this is just an opinion based on rationalization and devoid of reason and that this truth remains invisible to you. Everything you see is colored by the fact that you are blind to actual reality. It's called having rose colored lenses. Your only hope is not to believe in yourself and the opinions you hold. You need humility and surrender.

I can't help that you must have religious faith in the science to make statements as you've been making. Really that's your problem, not mine.



That really is the only way to understand Biden's comments. How many people use only a screen/glass main door to secure their house? Zero/Close to zero? When firing through doors, did Biden instead mean interior doors?!?! I mean, you've completely left the reservation here on any realistic interpretation of Biden's statements, fill us in on what you think Ol Two Barrels was talking about. Because when I listen to what he said, I'm taking it to mean he means firing through the main door or my secured house that criminal(s) are at to warn them off. Otherwise, his statements...make absolutely zero sense. Sort of like the level of sense you're using to post. Coincidence?



See above. You created a straw man in equating the two things as the same, when they are clearly not, to then defeat the evil people bashing Biden, thereby sticking up for someone who apperently is your hero. In zero way could any rational person equate the two things.

Good lord man, do you actually believe what you're posting here or are you just trolling? If so, seek help. Seriously. If trolling, ya got me.

Here we can observe the wild conservative in his natural habitat deep within his rationalizations. Few people have had the pleasure of seeing an environment where a straw man means equating two things that are not the same.

While the conservative brain may be primitive and easily manipulated, the liberals are just as manipulated using their own sense of intellectual superiority and smugness against them.

Correct

Good examples, very concise.

Seems to me that the parties are in cahoots and are holding hands while driving us off the edge. That is just the impression I get. I don't see either party doing much to help the country, especially in this particular situation.

Also, considering our current situation, I don't see how one can honestly believe we as a country actually deserve to have a good credit rating. We keep printing off more money, thereby making our money worth less and less... this means we are essentially paying less to those we owe money to. It is not a matter of "punishment", it is a matter of integrity.

+1

The entire system will have to collapse before it gets better.

You wouldn't want this. Trust is the most valuable commodity of them all.

You think this was going to go on forever? You can't pay your bills with borrowed money and expect to stay afloat, it doesn't work that way.

There is a clearing mechanism built in. Stock crashes, falling asset prices, bankruptcy, default, repo, etc for those who made bad investments. Everyone is too big of a pussy though.

Oh no no no, sorry, maybe I should have been more clear: You created your strawman when you actually treated the two things as equal, and then proceeded to "win" your argument. To me that's a strawman argument, but if it's some other F'd up term, so be it. Either way, you've clearly lost. Until the next Biden reference...lulz...

Is this the "I'm rubber you are glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you" part of your tantrum?

He doesn't know anything. It would never dawn on him that there is a reason I gave him the advise I did, that I know from experience what advise to give, that what I know cost me dearly in emotional pain.

Hehe, except the science says otherwise. The conservative brain defect at work again.

There isn't a conservative brain defect, lol. They might think differently than liberals, able to be measured scientifically, etc. Who is to say which one is the defective one?

What did you say>>>> this:

"While the conservative brain may be primitive and easily manipulated, the liberals are just as manipulated using their own sense of intellectual superiority and smugness against them."

All you have to do to prove that liberals are as easily manipulated by a smug sense of superiority is to provide the scientific evidence that shows that to be true. I think you will find that instead of any scientific evidence, we will find it's only your opinion. This denial of reality based on emotional desire to protect yourself from facts you don't like is a known conservative trait, known and documented scientifically. It is what you and the rest arguing with me have done here, make up your own facts.

I do the second one on a regular basis. :p It works pretty well.

Conservatives have a brain defect? You keep posting the same thing day after day after day after day. You are like the girl on 50 first dates. You can't remember that you have already posted this babble 15,000 times.

Yes, the F'd up term would be a false equivalence. If you don't want people to treat you like an idiot, you should learn these definitions before you use them.

As for your position that the two things are not equal, again, you have to add words that were never present in the original statements by Biden in order to declare them not equal.

After 15000 times you have not figured out that you have a brain defect.............because you have a brain defect. Your brain defect keeps turning the truth into what to you is babble. That is its function to keep you from hearing the truth. It's a terrible brain defect to have. It should be evident to you by now that you have a very low probability of hearing truth but that fact also is hidden from you by the same odds. I sort of hate to stick a pin through your thorax and put you in a display case like a rare insect, but you are an exceptionally fine specimen of your class. If we didn't already have the term brain defective we would probably have to call it Matt1970 Disease.

Such studies really get under my skin. Who decides what is a defect and what is within normal parameters for the human condition?

I've not seen yours work yet, low-hanging fruit, such as inane forum quips, doesn't count. Re. You profess much more depth than you've ever shown, pal.

How does anybody decide anything? Something gets under your skin. It may be because you sense unconsciously but correctly by gut instinct that something is wrong, or you may simply be a person who is screwed up and the truth irritates your condition. You already assume you know. But the question remains, do you.

In the ordinary world most people judge a thing by results. We know a tree by its fruit. When I look at Republicans I see a petulant lot of assholes who would destroy the faith and credit of the US for political aims. Anybody who would do that and think that they are doing good, has a brain defect, in my opinion. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

All you have is the experiences you have had that you can bring to the table. My experience tells me that long ago I questioned everything and destroyed everything sacred that I believed. For my objectivity I paid the price of losing everything. So when I say that the conservative mind deflects rather than allows itself to feel pain I know because I had to live through that pain. And the part of me that is ego didn't survive. I lost everything that could be taken.
