The soft left summed up in under four minutes.

[Commodus]

You are wrong. The revolution already happened, you're on the wrong side of it.

So you're saying (if) when the Dems are in power they'll undo everything Trump has done, you sound very positive about that. So.... then I am sure you have no issues with Trump dismantling everything Obama did. Sounds like a great way to run a country.

Let's revisit that "revolution" claim in November 2020... or maybe after the mid-terms in 2018, if you're particularly unlucky. It's highly ironic that you're one of the first to whine about the hubris of the Democrats and Clinton, but yet are completely certain Trump has achieved something permanent and that he'll win a second term in 2020. What was that about pride going before a fall?

I can understand why Trump would try to undo everything Obama did, but that doesn't make it right. One of Trump's many problems has been an insistence on reversing things purely out of spite, like ending regulations that prevent dumping harmful chemicals in rivers, or that talk of shrinking park lands simply because Obama created them. This is why the Democrats eventually reversing Trump's work is unquestionably a good thing; it may not be perfect, but it'll actually bring back responsible government. Total reversals with each party switch aren't a good habit to get into, but they're occasionally necessary to correct mistakes like Trump.

A lot of zombie lefties fit perfectly into the description of exactly what Mr. Shapiro says here. Victimhood... You can't fix a problem until you admit there is a problem. Today it seems the left is so ready to be outraged (often on the behalf of others... Pocahontas), always looking for a reason to be triggered. Your life is your own, you have the steering wheel. Stop blaming everyone else for your shitty decisions.

US Conservatives: the biggest victims on the planet.

In some situations, I agree. Overall the further left you go, the more victimy it gets.

Better fight for some kneejerk reaction that harms only the rights of those that actually follow the law (but not those that don't) and has no tangible effect on saving lives!

Crying? I'm celebrating. America chose wisely, and the unwise are struggling with that.

You keep claiming that you didn't vote for Trump but have been impressed with the direction he has taken America. Could you provide some specific things Trump has done that you are pleased with? Please, elaborate on the wisdom of America.

Projection and fake machismo. Typical Conservative. Maybe hug a gun.

отлично!

You seriously think there was a "revolution"?

Trump has one if not the lowest approval ratings of all time.

Trump has one if not the lowest approval ratings of all time.

And is still attempting a single piece of legislation.

coming from the party still bitching about "deplorables"??

P&N is like a bucket of crabs, just like the Left. One tries to escape and another will pull his ass right back down again.

[pmv]

Yawn. Same old rightist cliche. The right are never responsible for anything, any bad effects of the system they support is of course the fault of the victims of it.
What is it about right-wingers and an inability to accept responsibility for anything, ever?

 

[Starbuck1975]

Its funny, if I posted something negative about the right or "CBD" you guys wouldn't be able to get your pants around your ankles and form the circle quick enough. If something pro-Trump, or more accurately, anti-left is posted, you guys start with the troll comments. Closed mind hypocrites.

You're wasting your time.

So in other words you are claiming that the reason people don’t like your posts isn’t because they are childish and stupid, it’s because everyone is SO UNFAIRLY biased against you. Yes though, the left is a bunch of victims, haha.

You need to take some personal responsibility for once in your life and realize that you are largely to blame for this.

That's not what he was saying

 

[fskimospy]

That’s exactly what he was saying, that people would like his posts if they were liberal in content. People like agent00f are abundant evidence that’s not true.

He, like many conservatives, is a perpetual victim.

No, he is not. I consider myself a conservative, yet I clash with @SlowSpyder constantly on any topic related to the 2A. I can't recall a time in any of those exchanges where he went all butthurt.

It’s weird that you would quote him whining about how he’s picked on because of his viewpoint and then say you can’t recall a time where he’s whines about how he’s picked on. This is a pretty common thing though. You can pull up countless examples of conservatives whining how any countless number of things are unfairly biased against them and then turning around and criticizing others for complaining.

The culture of perpetual victimhood is a central tenet of modern conservatism. Watch Fox News or turn on the radio and listen with that thought in your head. It won’t take long for the examples to start piling up.

My gym has MSNBC, Fox and CNN side by side in front of the stairclimber I use. All I know is that there is plenty of incessant whining to go around and my glutes are epic bro.

 

[SlowSpyder]

You're wasting your time.

This forum is very left of center, which in itself is just fine, it is what it is. But what consistently shocks me here is how if one doesn't get on board with the group-think 100%, if anything is dared to be said that casts any shade on Obama, the DNC, liberals, Hillary, etc., then they can't let it go and it becomes a non-stop mud flinging competition, with truth having no place in the discussion. You can even be 99% on board, but any deviation from the left worship is met with the same handful of posters screaming.

As someone who repeatedly rejects empirical evidence he doesn’t like it’s ironic that you would complain about the place of truth in a discussion.

I agree, there is plenty of whining to go around! The thing is that it’s primarily conservatives who say that other people shouldn’t whine about how things are unfair.

The whining is one thing, the hypocrisy is another.

But you are countering his whining by whining, and asserting confirmation bias generalizations about conservatives the same as Shapiro does about liberals in the linked content.

Huh? So now anyone criticizing anyone is whining?

And what confirmation bias? Are you asserting that the belief that large parts of American society are biased against conservatives isn’t central to modern American conservatism? It’s basically the primary point.
