Why is there so much liberal hate?
Once again, as the faults in your argumentation are glaring, I'll ask you this - are you what they'd call a liberal or worse in the United States?
Instead of gloating over your imagined victories, why don't you tell Oodain where these apparent faults are in his argumentation?

This is an extremely underwhelming justification for sympathizing with a mass murderer with delusions of grandeur. There is absolutely no comparison between Breivik and the US revolution or any other legitimate political uprising. Not without some serious mental gymnastics, at least
Compare him with someone that history hasn't decided a winner. Compare him to Che Guevera. Some see him as a hero, some as a piece of s**t.

I don't think comparing him to Guevara would be fair either. I am not a big fan of Guevara, but... Breivik is not a revolutionary, his manifesto is like a blog entry on a white supremacist/truther web page. He is a profoundly sick man

but still nowhere near the same.
true he used violence, true he did so out of political ideals, but he fought with his(actually the opressors of others) opressors directly.
when you look at true terror attacks they often pick a purely civillian target and do not confront anyone, they are made only for one thing and that is to cause fear and promote violence, civil unrest and hate.
i am happy to see that the political influence in scandinavia of his actions werent in his favor.
what matters here isnt what people think of him but his intentions, the ideology behind his actions and his train of thought, something he went to great lengths to make perfectly clear.
some think bill gates is a piece of s**t, some think obama or Norman Gorlaug(man who literally saved a billion people), that however says nothing about the morality nor validity of their actions.

a few of the quotes are ambiguous, i agree he probably did hold some views that today would be seen as implicitly racist.
something that is noted in the first comment on the blog.
most men back then were also misogynistic in varying degrees by todays standard and most average americans probably werent much better.
that is not to say that he was right in holding those beliefs but one cannot take something that old completely out of its historical context.
also did he ever aspire to a racial cleaning?
did he try to convince others to do the same?
was he willing to use weapons of mass destruction to do so?
have you taken his extensive travels into account and the fact that he was deeply involved in several cultures around the globe?
i am by no means saying he was perfect or even that i think what he did was right or justified, his later actions taken into account, they upheld a regime after the revolution, there were instances of excessive violence as well.
but try reding some of their literaute side by side and it wouldnt compare, their thought process was wildly different.
((also look at vigs comment above))

The first fifteen pages, and several excerpts, yes. What does that have to do with it?
How did you decide that? To be honest, I think it's a sign of weakness in you that you're trying to accuse me of these things for disagreeing with you.
Once again, as the faults in your argumentation are glaring, I'll ask you this - are you what they'd call a liberal or worse in the United States?
He's a madman, of course. But if he had been right, what would you have said? You'd be angry at me for defending the idea that there didn't have to be a civil war. It's all socially normative. I don't like Breivik, and I hate the things he did, but I'm not going to ignore everything that inspired him just because of that. Unfortunately, liberals started smelling blood, as the time of his attacks was extremely convenient - many European governments were just about to step off from the idea of multiculturalism. Many of the people that inspired him were actual intellectuals with interesting and well-argued (that is, beyond personal insults, speculation about jealousy and thin-air accusations) points of view.
you dont know what inspired him is what i am saying and 15 pages of his ideological outline wont tell you how he actually looked at the issues in modern light, much of his justification and reason comes from old religious doctrine and he admits as such, he likened himself to the knights templar for one.
my real issue here is that you are basically saying that you dont think his actions were right but you can udnerstand his ideology and where he is coming from with it, and i say that that in itself is born out of an underlying cause, in this case a dislike of a particular group of people.
also please stop talking about what if he was right, because there isnt an iota of evidence that he is or will be anytime soon, his actions were based on the idea that there was a conspiracy between the arab leadership and the european leadership to crea new euro arabian nation capable of world domination.

Well, selective lack of outrage.
Actually, it all depends on your idea of morality. That, along with your political opinion, is a result of your environment and social conditioning. What Breivik did is not objectively right or wrong. We all disagree with it, and I've made that abundantly clear while being backstabbed by liberals for being more nuanced and saying I can imagine why Breivik thought what he did and arrived at the wrong conclusion, but it's not "moral" or "immoral" to agree or disagree with something. That's all a result of the type of society you live in, how you've been raised, and where you find yourself in terms of subculture or counter culture.
Is it wrong to sacrifice children? Several societies around the world didn't think so. To them, it served a greater good.
Then you've been reading my posts wrong. I didn't say that. The difficulties I have with muslims is that they threw stones at my dog, tried to hit my dog with a stick, called my mother a white whore, nearly hit me with a car, tried to scam me out of my money, yell insults at me almost every week, and have lured someone I knew into prostitution because she was fair game to them. Additionally, I've been threatened, and asked to convert.
I don't know about Canada, but where I live, 'close to half of white people' is not the definition of a majority. It was not, as is often claimed, a political cause taken up by the downtrodden masses.
Motivated by a political opinion. Did not feel represented by a government. Resentment towards a certain group. Use of violence in an attempt to cause the situation to deteriorate into open warfare.
For one, there is very little argumentation. It's about my morality compared to his instead of anything I've remotely wanted to discuss, and it involves accusations of violent white supremacism.

we are all dependant on the knowledge and work of others, especially in this day and age.
Yes I am I do not depend on govermeant aid, That is what I mean being self-reliant from the govermeant.

If you drive, use electricity, have your trash collected, have running water that isn't being pumped directly from an artesian well, then you are relying on the government. You pay taxes and your tax dollars are used to support the infrastructure that ALL of us ultimately depend on. If you TRULY want to be self-reliant, follow the example of Chris McCandless from Into the wild and try to "live off the land". You're so dense sometimes, brah.
Libertarians in general seem to be either completely delusional, or kinda stupid in some regard. Their beliefs are just *that* far removed form the reality of this world.
I take care of all those things by being a taxpayer and being self-reliant with my money. With out having the GOV to take care of me. Or mooching off the taxpayers like a parasite.

Isn't it more like the gov't relies upon the tax payer to fund those services, than the tax payer relying on the gov't to provide them? After all, the tax payer could (in theory) choose to purchase those services elsewhere, but the gov't only has one source of tax revenue: the citizens.

While a decent enough point, I feel it misses the thrust of the argument: the government provides these services as an ostensibly objective manifestation of the social contract we all live under. Government facilitates, with the main thrust of the argument being that there is no survival in modern society without such facilitation unless you choose to live in the wild as a hermit.

Not deeply, but I understand why he decided to believe what he did. Just like I understand why the French were angry at their king, or the Americans were angry at the British government.
That is disgusting, truly revolting. Breivik and his actions are not comparable to American and French revolutionaries. He is in the same camp as Muslim terrorists as well as homegrown US terrorists like Ted Kaczynski and Timothy McVeigh.
QFT.
And yet you idolize the IRA, what a hypocrite.

I don't view the IRA as such

You must not have hit a nerve yet because he would have called you a troll or a douchebag by now.
