Left Wing Propaganda

[QUOTE=jjsullivan;16851204]No you may not.[/QUOTE]

Please explain.

[M_B]

you don't know what communism even is, and you called being a democrat being a ham handed commie circle jerk.

which means you're doomed to being a republican.

[Mr. Mcguffin]

[QUOTE=Lostangeles4;16851106]uh, no. Stop twisting my words around. You're acting like one of those "intelligent" users who use too much straight-outta-the-dictionary garbage to try and get a point across yet no one knows what the fuck you are saying.[/QUOTE]

This is how I speak. I'm not going to apologize for you being too stupid to understands the words I'm typing.

[QUOTE=It.;16851231]arent they supposed to be all accepting unlike those dickhead intolerant righties?[/QUOTE]

Most of them are warm and comfy with your side and want to to decide for yourself... just as long as you decide for yourself their way.

[SamFinch]

[QUOTE=KaIibos;16851200]Being left wing, wouldn't they be fine with you coming out?[/QUOTE]

It was just an analogy. I actually think they'd be more ok if I came out than if I said I was a republican (which I'm not, I'm just not a democrat either).

Also, about the "ham-handed commie circle-jerk", I'm calling it that because it's ridiculously one sided.

EDIT: It was a joke, I don't think the people who made that movie are actually communist.

[QUOTE=Nyaos;16851177]If it is propaganda, be glad you're listening to the leftist side rather than the right side. Think for yourself obviously, but I have found that the right side doesn't think at all. There is a lot of dumb people on the left too, just generalizing.

And that is not to say there are all idiots on the right, my father is a Republican (one who knows facts) and we debate a lot. I found our core differences to be that I care about others, he cares about himself. Not in a selfish way, but in a "You live once, why not live for yourself?"[/QUOTE]

'The right side doesn't think at all'? So all those people protesting Obamacare must be thinking 'hurr huuurrrrr when's thuh next NASCAR race hyuck hyuck' as they protest, because they obviously can't think for themselves.

Tell me, if we right-wingers don't think, then why do we usually show up to protests with homemade signs, while the leftists normally show up with pre-fabricated signs?

Explain to me how living for yourself is not selfishness.

[QUOTE=ImOnTheBall;16851182]As mentioned before, you're asking Facepunch, you're going to get a left-leaned answer.[/QUOTE]

Facepunch is very libertarian. For the most part, we're pro-gay rights, pro-abortion, anti-gun control, anti-drug control, stuff like that.

Yes, saying that Obama is a Nazi, socialist, fascist, Kenyan shows a lot of thought.

i'm extremely bored
and its only 2:45 thank you very much

[Mr. Mcguffin]

[QUOTE={FP}ST;16851201]So you're not biased? I'm guessing you have polar opposite positions on many social/political issues than me.

Also, I've never heard of Michael Bay.[/QUOTE]

Of course I'm biased. I'm biased towards people who can substantiate their claims and don't make extreme accusations without extreme amounts of evidence. I'm biased towards facts and rationality. I'm also biased towards loud speakers and wry wits, but don't tell anybody.

The thing is, I'm also empirical. I listen to people who say the things I like, but I believe the people who substantiate their claims with verifiable evidence.

One last time:

Ham-handed => Obvious, lack of finesse (one sided)
Commie => Humourous name for democrats (only hillbillies are serious when they're calling dems a commy)
circle-jerk => hurf-durf we're so clever, the right doesn't think at all

[jjsullivan]

[QUOTE=SamFinch;16851239]Please explain.[/QUOTE]

Because for every party there is a reason for them:

Conservatives tend to be more close minded, they do not want to open up to new ideas, and most are very greedy.

Liberals Are on the other hand, are more open minded and think of what good can become of every governmental decision, and more or less will actually find the actual good and bad sides to things.

So therefore it's an oil/water situation, you cannot turn a conservative into a liberal, nor can you the other way around.

Because you're angry about issues you don't think about?

Why do you think Environmentalists show up at rallies with peace signs disparaging loggers for killing innocent trees? Does their nerve make them not wrong?

or you know, have opinions and stick to them and not change every 5 mins.

Facepunch can't handle politics. I stopped debating it years ago. I'll drop in and say something, most likely the lot of you will be against it. But I [I]try[/I] not to debate with you people anymore.

Yes but you acted like I was a conservative, when I stated I was neither. I'm actually trying to figure out which one I agree with more, but so far I don't think I can agree with either side 100%, or even 60% for that matter.

[QUOTE=Melkor;16851308]Yes, saying that Obama is a Nazi, socialist, fascist, Kenyan shows a lot of thought.[/QUOTE]

He started his career with and studied the works of socialists

I don't think Obama's a Nazi, but why did he bow to the Saudi King, then refuse to even look at Netanyahu (Israeli Prime Minister)?

Fascism is pretty much socialism

The whole 'born in Kenya' thing is dumb, neither side has enough evidence for anything

Way to not read the rest of my post. If you want the Republican party to look good, go down to the Town Halls and tell people to start talking with facts, not screaming and creating fear to turn people to their mob.
