What is really pathetic is that many liberals would argue with you that there actually are inferior nations compared to the United States.

What exactly does that prove? Like what's been said by a previous post, the black panthers backed/back your favorite socialist president. Every other group can advocate for its own self-interest, but I suppose it's only wrong when it's white people, then we're "white supremacists".

The left have deluded themselves into the belief that only white people can be racists.

This is why there are so many self-loathing white liberals.

This is why there are so many whites, many in positions of power, who lie about being black.

It's a stark reminder of how confused the liberal ideology is becoming.


“A lot of racism is paternalism,” he said. “A lot of people hide their own racism because they treat blacks, minorities and other groups like children because deep down they feel superior and better than these people. And they don’t feel like they should just treat a guy like a guy. So they feel like, ‘I need to speak for you, and I need to speak for you, and I need to think for you, and I need to judge you different in language and in morals than I judge other people of my race. It’s embarrassing.” -Jim Norton


When a person speaks up, rationally, about how bad Obama has been, they are instantly labelled "racist". It has become their hip-shot response to avoid the truth. Liberals, and especially the progressive faction, are so consumed with their ideology that they completely ignore reality. When you hear/read someone say/type something stupid like "all white people" and "all right wingers" you'll instantly know they carry the disease.

Both sides are not equally guilty.

you do realize that America "kicked out the conservatives" back in 2008 right?

and it turned out to be a such a bad choice that conservatives make up the largest portion of the house that they have in like 3 generations?

you do realize that right?

Time to kick the greedy democrats out!

In Congress, Democrats Are The Party Of The Rich
AP | By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER
Posted: 03/31/2014 8:17 am EDT

Quote:
But in Congress, the wealthiest among us are more likely to be represented by a Democrat than a Republican. Of the 10 richest House districts, only two have Republican congressmen. Democrats claim the top six, sprinkled along the East and West coasts. Most are in overwhelmingly Democratic states like New York and California.
If you are struggling middle class remember who your enemy really is.

Absolutely. The liberal ideology wasn't created to be logically consistent, but to be divisive and poisonous.

It's the equivalent of the plague, but in the mind. They project their feelings of superiority on to everyone else, which is why they point the finger at anyone to the right of them. It gives them a scapegoat from their own intolerance.

However, anyone who has come into contact with them enough knows all of this already.

Certainly not. The liberals win the award for most closet racists.

It wasn't always like this. Liberals used to be the ones who protected personal rights, now they seem to despise them. Anyone older than 40-50 years of age know exactly what I'm saying.

It's the radicals of the 60s and 70s who have hijacked the voice of the left. They were radical then, and they are even more radical now.

I've read that on many occasions. I was only a child in the '70's, so much of my experience comes from the "new" left and their tyranny.

I suspect it'll only get worse, and the next generation will experience an even more radical left.
