Nostalgia, as in a long time ago, when Democrats did the majority of the lynching? They lynched more people than republicans did. ;)

This is how present day right wingers LIE to themselves and others about the fact that the Republican Party of today has become the welcoming refuge for racists, not to mention authoritarian fundamentalists who think the constitution stops at the vagina and that who you want to marry and live your life with is the state's business, or that, in public commerce, your own personal sharia law can determine who you serve or what you serve them.

People who post this drivel are either really that stupid or shameless liars.

It's worse than being stupid. It's not about intelligence but rather about character, about what's in a person's heart.

In that, liberals' failing is in not understanding that people often can't, won't, don't want to & will never even try to conquer the darkness in their own hearts. We all have it. The difference is in what we do about it.

Who was the first person in your family to vote Republican? Probably your father or grandfather, right?

Liberals will blame the people who voted for Trump. Who will conservatives blame when electing Trump blows up in their faces?

I cannot accept that because it carries the notion of blame just as we see in buckshot who carries that virus. Personally, at least, I can't distinguish a single personal virtue about myself that makes me different from him except for random chance. The random impacts that I experienced in my life are all that I can think of that made me different from him.

All that I can see, if I see it at all, is that the disease that we suffer impels us to ascribe blame onto others. And if the disease is blame itself then maybe we shouldn't do it.

in a woefully disingenuous way, you mean?

That's why it is either pathetic (pure stupidity) or intellectually offensive (buckshat level of pure dishonesty).

Personally I blame what I call the liberal brain defect for the mess we find ourselves in, liberals wonderful capacity to exclude emotional moral outrage from their political calculations, their titanic blindness to the moral outrage that exists within the American people for politics as usual, their fear of feeling, of succumbing to irrational feelings, their intellectually distant disregard for the feelings of ordinary people.

I blame this liberal rationalism that will settle for something they believe to be better than Trump preserving the endless status quo of having medeocracy in office rather than a revolutionary.

In the light that reflects your posts back to you, Moonie, what do you see? Timeless truth, or the fevered and fractured fairy tale of a hypervenitlating hypocrite who only thinks he sees the one true (and final) solution?

Preach Buddhist remove or not.

Clamber up your carefully curated wall of moral outrage and DumpTrump on those you see as below or not.

Just don't do both. It's defective.

Don't talk out of both sides of your brain and then present yourself to yourself as any better, wiser, or more clear-seeing than all those you repeatedly lecture here.

You are on a path to doom, you filthy thing.

You poor silly fool, you really don't see that it's you who hides from reality in your safe place, this delusional pile of horse shit you spout.

[...]

Do what you can to increase your capacity to bear psychological pain you pansy.

The opaqueness of your self awareness is remarkable, proudly flaunting, as you do, the actual features of your brain defect.

Nothing to me could be more obvious than the the number of supposedly educated people who post here that lack any comprehension whatsoever regarding the reciprocal nature of rights. We are surrounded by backward savages emensly proud of their ignorance.

You have banged away at your own personal petard here . . . all bent nails hammered at ridiculously obtuse angles home into now splintered wood .

Please stop hoisting yourself up on it and exposing yourself to us. Nobody wants to see your shrill and shriveled root . . . principles. ;)

Let's all hope that, despite your juvenile tantrums disguised as righteousness, that the Armageddon you seem to welcome does not come to pass.

Politics is the art of the possible, and real, enduring social and political change is incremental and generational. Yeah, the trains don't run on time. Please, my friend, don't fizz out in personal pique and run to join the parade of the dim witted and the racist goose stepping after some cut rate Mussolini.

Edmund Burke held that polities are organic entities. You slash and burn the messy rain forest of it's garden and you gain, in short order, nothing but desolate, barren soil.

In the end, you won't even have a Pol Pot to piss in. :colbert:

Somebody has been triggered. I find this to be callous, stereotyping, and offensive.

I meant worse as in your LBD/CBD conceptualization. It's about our basic personalities that are completely formed by the time we're 4 years old.

Did you see the post and person he was responding to? Disingenuous? I do not think it means what you think it means.

I am relieved it's in the past. The Democrat's sordid Southern past is now the Republican's sordid present. Your little weasel troll jab of a post would irk me if it were so transparently pathetic. It was the best you could do, wasn't it? I am so glad I'm not you.

Of course I did.

My comment remains spot-on.

Democrats "that did all that lynching" is referring to the "Democrats" of Strom Thurmond, George Wallace, Jesse Helms and their southern democrat coalition that got rather upset about civil rights and all that mess.

You can't possibly be any more dishonest with that tired and invalid argument.

One isn't racist when they expect equal treatment and equal expectations. Liberals tend to not want either.

Crying, "you're racist" is just cowardly. Equating a group who passed Jim Crow laws with modern GOP is just pathetic and wrong.

Don't you think that comparing a party who passed Jim Crow type laws with the modern GOP is pretty disingenuous?

You would say that because you are as dishonest with yourself as you are with history.

Your mind is where intelligence goes to die. Not one critical thought has ever escaped the void between your ears.

I say this because you are clearly literate, and so it isn't simply ignorance. With an evidenced ability to read, you would also have learned that the very same coalition that passed Jim Crow in that party is the very same coalition that fled the party when they passed Civil Rights, and subsequently hijacked the Republican party.

This is known. This is not made up. This is as plain a fact as the color of the sky. You are a dishonest member of any community, and society as a whole would be better without your participation.

John, do you think I am racist? If so, based on what? Do you think I am feeding this "darkness" in my character instead of suppressing it?

Of course you do, you delicate little flower.

What we see today is the result of the realignment in the wake of the civil rights movement.

The party of Lincoln got more than they bargained for in courting & embracing former southern Democrats. Formerly divided, America's vast array of bigots & looney tunes united under their banner, including the Fundie fringe. Only master puppeteers could keep that clusterfuck together while looting the economy with top down class warfare.

When Trump looked hard at the marionette show, he said "Shee-it. I can make 'em dance better than that!" & proceeded to do so.

It's about much more than the Democrat's sordid Southern past...it's about things like Japanese internment camps and FDR (a New Yorker) never lifting a finger to stop the lynchings. The Republican's sordid present is NOT anything that's even remotely close the the Democrat's sordid past. People who post such drivel are either really that stupid or shameless liars.

Repeating the same lies over and over don't make them true. How have I lied about history?

Amazing that I can tie my shoes!

Now, do you have any answers to my questions or do you just want to insult me?
