  1. Which are conflicting principles, directly. Civil rights means equal rights, and DEI is preferential rights for certain groups.

  2. No, they're just immoral liars, and they don't care, they know they're hypocrites. Doesn't matter to them. Anything for power. They laugh at the rest of us for valuing things like honesty, they view it as weakness.

  3. Depends on what color you are, and what color they are.

  4. Based on her own logic, the overwhelming majority of leftists are not alive.

  5. I dunno about that, there's a reason not every young person believes this crap, even though all of them are exposed to it. It's a failure of morality, if you really think you can get a bunch of free stuff without having to work for it, and nobody else has to suffer for that to happen, then you just haven't thought critically about it, or you don't care, as long as it isn't you that suffers. I won't give them the benefit of the doubt. I'm not saying they're irredeemable, broken people, but they have to seek redemption before they can be fixed.

  6. That's why they short circuit when they're challenged, they don't really have a follow up to their talking points, because they don't even understand their own talking points. It's like a parrot, it doesn't know what "hello" means, it just knows people make that noise, so it makes the same noise.

  7. This is the problem with censorship, whenever you suppress conflicting information, you can convince a certain personality type of anything.

  8. Not only that, it's also an ethical dilemma. What someone does in their private doesn't directly effect you all the time, but there are downstream societal effects when we start affirming people's delusions. That's not empathy, it's enabling. The truly empathetic thing to do would be a dose of tough love, and harsh reality.

  9. Back in my day, these people would have just gone through a goth phase. Except it's a lot easier to just stop wearing dark clothes and makeup, at the worst you might end up with some tattoos you regret. These kids are going to have a much more difficult battle with recovery.😊

  10.  @justincase1919  the average dem voter isn't politically involved at all though, they pay attention to politics for about 15 minutes, once every 4 years. I'm not talking about them. I'm talking about the far left activists. Don't give them the benefit of the doubt as just being ignorant, and they are ignorant, and stupid, very, very stupid, but they're also deeply immoral people, there's something seriously wrong with them. Everything they say is a lie, they'll take anything you allow them to take, and they won't have a second thought about it, morality is a completely foreign concept to them. The only thing they know about morality is that it's a thing that normal people care about, and they can use that to their advantage.

  11.  @seeyalateralligator00  and it's hard to tell if they're just unaware of how contradictory it is, or if they just don't care. My stepdaughter is 22 and fresh out of college, and she's got a somewhat concerning degree of lefty brain rot. Not a full blown looney, there's hope for her. But she genuinely doesn't see how it's contradictory to complain about racism while also blaming white people for everything bad that's ever happened. She really doesn't see it, no matter how clearly I map it out for her.

  12. Technology has made too many things too easy. We have to actually use our mind and solve problems less and less the more we invent things to do it for us. Some people still know how to think and solve problems. But it's no longer necessary for survival.

  13. It is, but from my understanding, there's a pretty high bar for a conviction, because of the protection of freedom of speech. There has to be enough evidence that it was a credible threat, and that there was actual intent and plausible action. You can't just say the words and get convicted, that can be played off as a prank, or a joke.

  14. Yea I don't even believe her story about being abused as a baby. Not because that never happens, of course it does. But she's clearly not an honest or moral person, she is absolutely the kind of person who would make up a sad story to make people think her ridiculous views are more acceptable.

  15.  @ChrisPierreBacon  that's not hypocrisy, some people just have a more traditional view of sex and relationships, and think that society as a whole should step back and have a less casual attitude towards all of it. I'm not asking you to agree, and I'm not even saying that I agree with that, because I don't, but it's a completely consistent ideology if you look at it from a biblical perspective of valuing purity and waiting until marriage for sex.

  16. This is the way I see it, if you have a little kid that likes to play dinosaur, that's completely normal, you play along and encourage them to be imaginative and playful. But if they get waaaaaaay too into it and start pretending to be a dinosaur all the time, and they're even asking their teacher to address them as a dinosaur, eventually you're going to have to talk to them and say hey buddy, you know this isn't real, right? You're not a dinosaur.

  17. Exactly, it's never going to be a table, or a walrus, or Ilhan Omar. It's always going to be a human being.

  18. ​ @CSLoonie and that was normal for us, I turned 18 in 2003, and I didn't really give a damn about politics either. I knew I wasn't a leftist, I had learned about socialism and similar ideologies, and had enough sense to know that they're ridiculous, and childish. But I didn't really care about current events and elections until more like my mid 20s. Most people younger than that who care about politics were pressured into caring about politics.

  19. ​​ @Harold_Callahan sounds like you and your family are winning at life, good for you. I've found that a lot of tomboys do grow up into beautiful, fun, charming women. My theory is that while the "pretty" girls are more concerned with popularity and materialism, the nerds and tomboys are developing a real, authentic personality that's all their own. I'm not trying to say the popular kids are all bad people, but there is a tendency to conformity in those circles, and that can often result in them becoming boring, unremarkable adults.

  20.  @justincase1919  you don't actually think they believe their own shit, do you? When they shrug off 500 BLM riots in a single year as being "mostly peaceful" and simultaneously act like one riot at the Capitol is the end of the world? Come on. Nobody actually believes that, not a single person. They're lying, and they know they're lying, and they laugh at you if you think they're just naive or biased.

  21.  @dth91  right, if you just make a veiled threat online, they won't do anything to you, but if you do that at the same time you purchase a rifle and a ticket to DC, you could certainly be arrested and tried for that.

  22. Everyone has limitations on what freedom means, we don't allow murder, because giving people the "freedom" to murder infringes on the rights to life of any of their potential victims. Many people view abortion the same way, I'm not asking you to agree with that opinion, but your assessment of it being antithetical to freedom is objectively incorrect.

  23. The only kind of diversity we should be concerned with is diversity of thought, and only kind of equity we should be concerned about is equal opportunities, and the only kind of inclusion we should be concerned about is including anyone that has earned an opportunity for something.

  24.  @TheHSIHP  imagine if your mom shared the same sentiment.

  25. I've always thought it was amazing that "reality has a liberal bias" ever became a common phrase, because it couldn't be further from the truth. Conservatism at its core is seeing the world in an honest and realistic way and forming your views accordingly. Liberalism at its core is seeing the world the way you want it to be, and trying to conform reality to that.

  26. Pretty bad example, most of them like Stalin.

  27. ​ @derekjet7715 except God may exist, nobody really knows that for sure. Men definitely cannot get pregnant, we do know that for sure. But nice try with the false equivalence.

  28.  @BellePal  yes it is. You don't have to push diversity if you want equal rights under the law, you just give everyone equal rights and let the chips fall where they fall. If a certain field is dominated by one or a few ethnicities, so what, that probably means those ethnicities are interested and talented in that field, and that's a good thing, because that means the best are doing it. It doesn't matter what field or what ethnicity we're talking about.

  29.  @TheHSIHP  and how is her mental state? Really not trying to be disrespectful, just straight up, has she suffered from depression or any other issues that you know of? Does she seem like an emotionally collected person, or is she kind of a mess?

  30.  @TheHSIHP  why is it impossible for you lefties to just answer an honest question with an honest answer? It's like you're physically incapable of just being straight forward.

  31. They do a somewhat clever bait and switch, that I think most people don't even realize. A Republic is technically a type of Democracy, it's not the same as Direct Democracy, but any government elected by the people is under the greater umbrella of Democracy. But they don't mean the umbrella term, they mean direct democracy. They're just trying to obfuscate the terms so they can avoid a real discussion and just argue over definitions instead.

  32.  @candyandsketch6338  criticizing other religions isn't the same as thinking people shouldn't have the right to practice their religion. But nice try.

  33.  @candyandsketch6338  also mixing church and state isn't fascism, that would be theocracy. Which the overwhelming majority of conservatives are not in support of. Fascism would be merging corporations with the state, like democrats are so adamant about.

  34.  @candyandsketch6338  you just said the same thing again, and pretended like it's not stupid this time.

  35. If you ask politely, most people will address you however you want to be addressed. And if for their own reasons they refuse to, then screw them, move on with your life.

  36. Imagine having such a lack of self awareness you say it should be legal to abort a baby the day before delivery, and then immediately accuse other people of being disgusting.

  37. Imagine if you meet someone named Robert, and they say "please, call me Bobby", pretty much everyone would be completely fine with that, "sure, nice to meet you Bobby". Now imagine the same guy immediately starts screaming at you and says "don't you ever call me Bob!!!". At the very least you would privately think damn, what was Bob's problem? A lot of people would want to call him Bob just out of spite, you don't have to be an ass about it.

  39.  @TheHSIHP  how many women do you personally know that have had abortions?

  40.  @kaiseblaise5576  and nearly half of self identifying female liberals have at least one diagnosed mental illness.

  41. Foster homes aren't a guarantee for a good life, but being aborted is a guarantee that you'll be dead. This woman is so ideologically captured, she actually thinks the guarantee of death is better than a low probability of an easy life. Everyone has a low probablity of an easy life.

  42.  @justincase1919  maybe I've just spent more time talking to them than you have.
    2
  43.  @justincase1919  how do you know I haven't stopped to think about it? That doesn't mean I have to agree with you. And how do you know I haven't heard the exact same argument a thousand times? I used to think the same thing, but the more you talk to these people and see the mask slip, you start to realize they're just awful people who want to be part of an ideology that rules with an iron fist, and victimizes, abuses, and eliminates everyone who stands in their way. They're too stupid to realize that if their ideology does take control, they'll be in the way too. So I'm not saying they're not also stupid. I'm only saying that they're not just merely naive and mislead. That have truly vicious intentions.

  44.  @donaldchapman4312  "gimme more stuff" is basically the core of what you could call their morals or ideology. Any secondary ideologies they may subscribe to are just out of convenience for whatever they think will allow them to extract the most while putting forth the least amount of effort.

  45.  @candyandsketch6338  so basically you're just saying you don't agree with their criticism of other religions. Ok, cool. You have that right the same as they have the right to criticize, and other religions have the right to criticize them. I really don't understand what part of this is hard to understand. Do you expect religious people to just be totally fine with every other religion and treat them all as equally valid? You haven't met a single religious person if you really think that. That's why the law says that people are allowed to worship as they please without any threat of legal punishment, as long as how they worship doesn't violate any other existing laws. It doesn't say everyone has to like them, or the way they worship.

  46.  @candyandsketch6338  you just keep repeating the same nonsense, with slightly different wording, and pretending like it's somehow less stupid. You have no valid point whatsoever.

  47.  @TheHSIHP  that's not my ridiculous standard, that's yours. Someone saying "hey, you shouldn't kill your unborn baby" doesn't have to take care of your baby for you. That's ridiculous. They didn't make you conceive the baby, it's not their responsibility. That would be like someone getting killed over a gambling debt, and you say "hey, don't kill that dude because he owes you money", and I retort with "well you should pay his debt for him, or you're a hypocrite". It's ridiculous.
    2
  48.  @TheHSIHP  it's already pretty damn easy to access birth control, again, why does everything have to be easy, and someone else's responsibility for you? Can you think of any hypothetical scenario, about absolutely anything whatsoever, that you think people should be responsible for their own choices? Real question. Give me one example where you think people should take personal responsibility. Just one. About anything at all.

  50. ​ @MinhNguyen-pk9qk most people are surprised when you tell them the Soviets killed more people than Fascists and Nazis put together. A lot of people don't believe you, even when you show them.
