Do aspies generally dislike conservatives?

Hmm.... I used to beat up on myself a fair bit. Maybe there's something to that hypothesis.

QFT
Well said.

thank you
I really hate it when they pee on my leg then expect me to believe them when they tell me it was only raining.

Yeah,I really believe you. I don't eye roll much,but most avid hunters I know are very environmentally conscious,where are you guys gonna blast a deer if there are no forests?
Fire up a chain saw and cut a swath thru my woods,see how you digest lead.
And if you were hungry,I'd give you half my sandwich.You don't have to drop and do twenty.

Sigh...............looks like someone's been in the Jägermeister this evening. And one of those ones that gets bitter when they've been in their cups. tisk, tisk. tisk.....

I haven't been an avid hunter lately. Not all deer are found in the woods. What about pastures or on the prairie?


I seriously doubt the woods behind my house are yours.


I'm can't even guess what that means but it does support my theory of inebriation.

As I am someone who does not fit amongst the norms of society I do dislike a great many of US conservative views/politics. The Republican party has too much influence from major corporations and religious groups. I just cannot agree with many of their views and I find them too apathetic to certain issues that will affect us in the future.

I do admit my views are somewhat left of the political spectrum but I still disagree with some of the Democratic Party's views/politics. That is why I am not registered for any party in the US.

if only they would 1] stop opposing universal health care, and 2]keep their damned bluenoses out of everybody's [but their own, the hypocrites!] bedroom, then they [as a party] would be a lot more palatable.

Depends on the Aspie. It can certainly seem that way online at times, but I think that has as much to do with the demographics of heavy internet users as anything else.

Jagermeister?ewwww,grosss.I have never drank that and never will.
So the hunters that support ducks unlimited are not conservationists?
I was not talking about your woods,they are your to butcher if you will.But I doubt you would do it.I doubt you even own a good saw,you've probably got a Mcculloch.
The sandwich remark was that a liberal will give you a bite to eat out of compassion,but a conservative will expect something in return.

I was slightly buzzed,that's true.I had been in the redwoods drinking good beer,IPA.
But it was my birthday.Now I head home,to flooding.And no wi fi on the train for two whole days.

I've been right wing as far back as I was able to make a determination. And I've come across a few others with the diagnosis who are, as well. Though little more to the left than I am, depending on how you define it. Some people might consider me not extreme because I'm not racist. I think Republican politicians are bunch of hypocrites for the most part, so in that I would consider myself extreme as I define myself as too right wing to be a Republican.

At the time I thought he was smart and I liked his kick-ass attitude toward the Soviets. He was a war hawk. Not like the Baldwin-Moore pinko stinko America hating commie living lily livered bleeding hearts.

Kennedy was also a war hero. He was a warrior.

Contrast this to your typical pinko stinko commie loving America hating equalizing Liberals that infest our country now.

How would you know if you aint never had it?


Yes, I guess most of them are. I don't remember saying otherwise.


I think that belongs to the city.


Really? I had a thread going 2 or 3 years ago based on studies that conservatives give more to charity than liberals.
I give to neighborhood can drives that the scouts around here do, food drives at work, Toys for tots, drives for food and supplies for the animal shelters of this county, I spent a Saturday in some warehouse assembling care packages for the needy. Actually, what I did wasn't actually handling the contents. Me and some doctor busted ass taking pallets and pallets and pallets of folded boxes off of the pallets, unfolding them, and taping the bottoms closed. It sounds easy but the people filling them with food and stuff were coming for those boxes faster than we could assemble them. We were in overdrive the whole day.


I don't particularly like IPA.


Happy Birthday!

This is an interesting thread. I would have thought the concensus would have been more liberal trending. In my experiences the conservatives are the party of hate and discrimination, and I don't why anybody here would want to support that.

Like many of you here, I'm also driven more by logic than by emotions. I'm less likely to be brainwashed by commercials or smiling politicians. A simple study of pure facts easily demonstrates to me that the liberal position is better for the majority of people. Gay marriage doesn't have negative side effects, a living working wage works, universal healthcare works in the countries that have it, the countries with better education systems invest in them and don't focus on private education/charter schools. I think there is a mistaken belief among conservatives that liberalism is about food stamps. It's not. It's about creating jobs and a safety net, and education for people, and in the meantime not abandoning people that slip through.

Had I been around then I may have voted for him, too.
The republican and democratic parties have both evolved (for lack of a better term) into something less palatable over the years. Now it's just a matter of asking myself who makes me less nauseous. It's really a pathetic situation.

I kid! I kid!
