But that is absolutely no different from how liberals get treated in far Christian Right conservative forums

So, again, seriously, where do you live that you are constantly surrounded by people like that?




It's listed in the upper right hand corner of every one of his posts.


There is only one.


It's in Florida.

Florida. And if you don't think there are not people in every State who feel that way, I have some swamp land down here to talk to you about. Who do you think those clowns are who go to Trump rallies, liberal plants ?

No, but hardliners from both sides are just about the same beast.

For that, I was called a racist POS, a neo-Nazi, accused of marching in Charlottesville, and all sorts of other hateful stuff.

Thanks for proving the point about how disdainful and intolerant the liberals are when faced with a differing opinion. You innocently asked for an example, I gave an EXCELLENT one, and bam! - it was only a set-up to demonstrate more disdain.

Again, thanks for demonstrating the very point of this thread - the absolute disdain people like you have for those who disagree with leftist policies. The very fact that you tried to draw a parallel between my first two posts is a result of that intolerance.

P.S. I started to explain why the parallel you attempted to draw doesn't hold water, and then I realized that your intolerance wouldn't allow you to comprehend it.

I wouldn't know, because I've never been to what you call a Christian Right conservative forum. Do you go to them, or are you just guessing?

You are correct. You demonstrated the intolerance of liberals. The study is very interesting, as it shows that libs and democrats are prejudiced and intolerant of other people's views.


It is not surprising, as liberalism is based in totalitarianism and by its nature shows contempt for individual rights and freedom of speech. Totalitarians never allow dissention, and liberalism is just another example of this type of behavior.

Funny you speak of intolerance while you champion Trump who is the whiniest, most intolerant SOB to ever occupy the White House.

Go ahead. I'm not the only one reading the thread. Maybe they have the intellectual capacity I lack and you guys can have a good laugh. I dish it out plenty so I can take it.
