5 Reasons Liberals Are Such Unpleasant People To Be Around

Post Reply New Topic

Why is homophobia less homophobic when based on religion?

Perhaps we're using different definitions of 'homophobia', mine requires more than simply opposing gay marriage for any reason whatsoever.

1) They're unhappy: They do seem to be generally angry and take themselves too seriously.

2) Liberals don't care as much about tradition: They tend to consider traditional holidays like the 4th of July to be jingoistic and Christmas too Christian. If you mention tradition to them they go to extremes and assume you MUST obviously want to go back and live in the 19th century. To them, tradition is also a dog whistle for homophobia.

3) Liberals see people who disagree as evil: And how! You’re either with them or against then and to b against them is to be evil.
• If you’re critical of environmental fanaticism you want to destroy the environment and are probably in bed with oil companies
• If you didn’t vote for Obama or are critical of his administration it’s only because you’re a racist
• If you’re against ACA you’re want people to die in the streets
• If you’re at all critical of public assistance or question some people’s apparent abuse of it you want people to die in the streets
• If you support state’s rights on ANYTHING it’s only because you want to bring back segregation

4) Liberals aren't very religious: They claim to be against all religion but hammer on Christianity the most. The ones that claim to be Christian often go to a certain church known to be charitable only to supplement their public assistance income. Seen it happen IRL enough.

5) Liberalism encourages arrogance: On this one I can’t honestly say that liberals lead the way. They are an arrogant lot but so are conservatives. I’ve been an arrogant prick on occasion and enjoyed it immensely..

The fact that you don't read any philosophy. history or political theory is problematic. It means that you are likely to be getting your political paradigms mainly from marketing/ PR.

In a democratic society, interest groups champion their agenda by cultivating the consent of the public.

Much of the media is devoted to inculcating certain attitudes into the public on behalf of some interest group.

Gee, I must be quite ignorant if I don't read ANY philosophy. history or political theory. I guess me being that ignorant licenses me to say just about ANYTHING and you'd have no grounds to challenge me on it since I'm too dumb to be accountable or even to know WTF I'm talking about. Any criticism would therefor be an attack on the mentally handicapped.


Most interest groups can be categorized in one of these two:
1) One that assumes the public is clueless and has to be shown the light
2) The other that tells the clueless public that the other interest group is full of sh**.


Not entirely unlike interest groups themselves but what do I know, philosophically and historically ignorant as I am.

I am not trying to be condescending.

By interest group, I mean a group of people with common aims.

All of our attitudes come from somewhere. We should reflect on where they actually come from, what their purpose is, and who they serve.

Just to illustrate who Raptor is promoting in this thread:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2AAbF7Dmjs[/youtube]Yup. Same guy as in the link in the OP.

Condescension can be very rewarding in a twisted sense but only if it leaves the condescendee in a state of butthurt.


Yeah, I know what they are and some of them can be quite obnoxiously vocal and dogmatic.


Attitudes and opinions are formed from several sources including life experiences. According to you, this can be my only source except for maybe conservative talk radio and Fox news since I know absolutely nothing of philosophy, history or political theory.

And?.....

The name of the person in the video is not mentioned or displayed.

Inquiring minds sort of want to know.....

So if somehow this person and their opinion are linked to the article, are we to assume that:
- Raptor is using this thread that he started as an indirect means of spreading homophobia?
- Liberals should be allowed to post post countless anti-conservative threads but conservatives shouldn't be allowed to post anti-liberal threads?
- Raptor is doing this solely for the purpose of trolling? Something no liberal has ever done.

Did you miss the "John Hawkins" name of the guy who posted the video?

However, if any doubt remains:

Like I said: Same guy.


Well, if you have to resort to an extremely homophobic source to support your US conservative criticism against US liberals, then which of your 3 options seems most obvious to you?
