I actually think they're not mentally ill leftists at all. I think they're secretly in on helping the establishment by deliberately making liberals look like unlikable lunatics.

I'm an actual liberal, and I cannot relate AT ALL to the priorities and actions taken by the current smorgasbord of Democrats. They obviously don't intend to be taken seriously.

Democrats and Republicans are just two sides of the same coin.

Utter nonsense here. No one on any scale worth mentioning is doing any of that stuff listed.
Bawac lives in OK with his Preacher family IIRC. Yet he refuses or will not leave for better situations.

So in his eyes probably everyone does see this way. I've told him now for several years he needs to move to Dallas and he's talked about CO but no.

Misery means happiness.

Examples, please.
Any surveys to back up these statements?
Any proof that this is how HALF of the country collectively thinks?

A leftist group just beat up a GAY JOURNALIST so bad that he had to go to the hospital.

I think the gays should be afraid of the left, not the right. /Shrug/

It's extreme ideology. It isn't "nuts" and there's a logical basis behind it, just not one I support.

"My ancestors/blacks ancestors were brought here in slaves ships, so I hate everything that came before emancipation/1964/whatever"

"Noam Chomsky/Howard Zinn told me the West is responsible for most of the bad in the world and is enormously hypocritical, and thus America and its power structures need to be taken down"

There is at least some element of truth in those positions, I just don't support the extreme aspects of those who hold those beliefs, but I do support progress towards a better nation/society. .

It's just more evidence that the OP is correct. The left are delusional and have this little fantasy world running around in their heads that has no basis in reality.

This post highlights the ignorance of those on the left and shows how they do not understand conservatives the way we do them.

Being a conservative means one believes in personal responsibility and understands that our actions have consequences. It is the belief in the sanctity of the individual over the collective. We believe in order to maintain liberty for the individual, small/local government, the rule of law and the free market are essential.

We fight collectivization not because we are racist, homophobic, sexist and the rest of what you believe, but because we understand history and appreciate the brilliance of the Founders in forging our system. While some conservatives are religious, I’m certainly not and the so-called religious right doesn’t make up a majority of conservative people.

The Left (Democrats, Progressives ALL) have put us in BIZARRO WORLD due to them owning the Media, Entertainment, Social Media, Education, Tech, and now other facets of Corporate America. They not only accept, but promote the suspension of reality, rationality and logic in order to FEEL good about themselves and their motives.

It is sick, twisted, counterproductive and most of all DANGEROUS.
