Conservative american values fought hard against changing:

Slavery
segregation
inter-racial marriage
homosexual marriage
homosexual integration with the military
labor unions
women's right to vote
allowing women into the workforce with equal pay
civil rights

Feel free to try to list some hateful "liberal" activity.

I always thought that Lincoln was a Republican. I know for a fact that Republicans supported Civil Rights far more often then the Democrats did. I'm pretty conservative, but i've voted for same sex marriage and fully support it. Also no problems with gays in the military. I guess you could say I oppose unions throwing their members money away on liberal Democrats, so I guess you got one right.

Listing hateful "liberal" activities? You don't have to look any further then your signature for that or this thread for another.

This one:
"I get it. You are angry that insurers making billions in profits cannot deny or drop coverage of your fellow Americans. You aren't angry that they make profits off the healthy while the taxpayers pay for the elderly, the poor, and the ER. Just like slave owners, proponents of segregation, those against women's rights, those against inter-racial marriage, those against abortion, and those against civil rights, and soon, those against gay marriage, you will get over it.

Republicans back then were liberal.

I suppose if this was labels of Democrats vs. Republicans then your point would make sense. However, liberals vs. cons? Nope, Lincoln was liberal for his time, civil rights was a cause taken up by liberals and opposed by conservatives, and so forth.

Liberals hate conservatives, but conservatives hate liberals and tons of other groups. I think it's the social conservatism, it makes them all prudes and then they get so much rage in them.

Oh I see, liberals get to make up any definition they want to and then label people and stick them into cubbyholes. Sounds fair to me.

I'm not making any definitions up. I'm going to by liberal vs. conservative, as the first post of the topic went by. If we're going by historical use of Democrat and Republican, then that would be different.

Republican doesn't mean liberal and conservative doesn't mean Democrat and Republican doesn't mean conservative and Democrat doesn't mean liberal. Democrat and Republican are names of political parties, not the name of a political ideology like liberal or conservative.

Conservatives have been against all sorts of things that everyone likes today. It's the nature of it. Society moves on and adopts the liberal position on things like anti-slavery, allowing minorities to vote, allowing women to vote, desegregation, etc.

Thus, conservatives are really really really hateful. At least in the US. Maybe liberal and conservative is different in, say, Europe. I would think that both liberals and conservatives in Europe are very very hateful, they're incredibly racist.

There is plenty of mudslinginging in US but the hate from the right is the darker more reactionary element since the ruling classes have created these little bullshit propaganda outlets like fox and limbaugh to spread divisiveness within the working/middle classes. The left tends to critisize but in the end sees cons as misinformed fools, but.still Americans. The hate from the right is not critisism or debate it is a old time worn right-wing tradition of dehumanizing fellow citizens.


This is a big part in why con humor tends to find pain or bad luck of others funny. On the other end libs generally find the small guy speaking some sort of truth to power or gets his just comings from a large power amusing. imo one is a hater mimdset that seeks evil in a world of precieved evil. The other group does not give up on us so easily, sure, humanity is a mess, but having this umderlying paranoid nihilist view.of everyone is out to screw you must suck to live with. Reaction with little or no wisdom, is foolishness.




I gave up giving a toss about conservatism and its mass media fed haterism cultists, not having to
live around them (supposedly) you come to realize some people are ju
miserable assholes looking to hate on anything but their own problems. It can happen to anyone I,o but the right wing loves this elememt of society like flies on shit.... The old divide and conquer trick works well, since so many people are self destructivey nature or whatever.

The far right is far more hateful than the far left, but in general I find the moderate left to be more hateful than the moderate right. Most of the people I know who are moderately right wing are pretty much live-and-let-live types while the the moderate left wing people I know tend to hate anyone who falls anywhere to the right of them. Just my observations.

That sounds reasonable.

To add to that, I think that I find very clearly less of a hateful attitude in people of higher intelligence regardless of political stripe. Hatred seems to be the refuge of the weak mind when it comes to the realm of ideas.

The key difference between conservative hatred and liberal hatred is that conservatives are honest about it.

IMHO it seem like most conservatives are full of hate. They don't see the harm they are doing to this country because they are consumed by their hate of the left. Liberals tend to be more open about different ideas, even ones they don't agree with. Conservatives tend to be close minded.

What are your thoughts in this issue?

Generalizations are only useful for justifying even more dumb ass generalizations.

This is the self important rationalization of the bum begging for change for dogmatic booze, not a man who stands on 2 feet. Weak.

Liberals say consevatives are more hateful and that they are tolerant of other views, and if you do not agree with them you should be silenced for being a terrible hatemonger!

Conservatives are more likely to be violent. They've also been more often on the side of hating things from a historical standpoint.

Sigh. Another day, another steaming pile of ignorance. A stupid troll thread. And continued ignorance from the left.

You already formulated your answer before starting the question.

You do not want/desire answers that conflict with that train of thought.

It looks like P&N has reached a whole new level of stupid. I wouldn't have thought it possible. Congrats to all of you for continuing to prove that you're every bit as ignorant and self righteous as you accuse others of being.

I hate you Conservatives.

My wet dream is for the US to break out into a Civil War so we can pwn your asses a second time.

I am just sick of you ignorant Teabagging "I'm rich, but live in a trailer home" racist, imaginary God-fapping bastards. If it were up to me, I'd drop a nuke in every square inch of Conservative Teabagger country.

OP, you'd better believe the Liberals are pissed off and are only an inch away from the breaking point.

I can't stand you people.

Cept for Ron Paul. I like that guy.

I've noticed that right wingers have vastly more hate in their hearts than anybody else.

Look at people like Anne Coulter and the people who like her. If this isn't a troll thread... are you serious?

Look at any thread like #occupy and the " liberals" are all ' peace and love, mannnn'. The "conservatives" are all ' LOL pepperspray that elderly woman! Did you see her face? LOL '.

The burning done by the occupy non-bathers in california does not support your claim.

Sorry, but what ever reference you were making to burning went over my head.

Why don't you wish death on some dirty non bathing #OWS protesters to help prove my point.
