this applies to politicians and specifically candidates going for election. the media and regular citizens is another thing. but yeah, i think they should be held in check somehow. show that it's not virtue to name call and make off the cuff comments against your opponent. etc.Reign in Blood wrote:But wouldn't that mean liberals realizing how batshit insane they are?zombie wrote:i'm aware. i wasn't just speaking to conservatives stopping it.Jason wrote:That would mean the democrats would have to change their entire political approach.zombie wrote:could be this is a sign that we need to focus more on difference in policy again. rather than attacks on character and the like.

Your selective outrage is interesting. Like Democrats say it thousands of times every single election cycle and it is fine, in fact it becomes a rallying cry of "We need campaign finance reform!". Suddenly a republican says it and it is an assault on character and "clearly a way to invalidate a candidate". One sided propaganda much?zombie wrote:

I was exaggerating about Catholics and twas a joke. Good Lord, don't be so sensitive lol.Foo wrote:Good lord. What percentage of NANBLA members support gay rights?Jmac Attack wrote:99.9% of white supremacists hate globalism. I don't see 99.9% of gay dudes supporting NAMBLA. You might see a higher % of Catholic priests though.
I notice you are worried about slurs, then throw a shot at Catholics in there out of nowhere. Think you might be part of the problem?

I know you have love for the Jews. I said that not everyone who hates globalism hates Jews or are racist. R.I.F.....Reading is fundamental.Foo wrote:what happens when you discover a person who dislikes globalism and likes Jews? Like myself. What does that do to your theory?Jmac Attack wrote:That guy who mailed all those bombs.....probably hates Jews and globalism. The dude who shot up the synagogue, probably hates Jews and blames them for globalism. And now the dude in Kentucky shooting those elderly black folks, maybe ...most likely hates Jews and globalism.
But let the Kentucky shooting be investigated further to be fair. Like our president says, unless it's saying that Middle Easterners are a part of the immigration caravan. Then say that he has no proof at all of what he said maybe "fact". It's ok to spread falsehoods if it gets your base all riled up. Ugh.
My point was, don't be surprised if others question or raise an eyebrow at you if you go on about globalism. I made that very clear. Very very clear.
Not saying it is right for others to do that, but until the right wingers go all out and piss off the white supremacists, you're unfortunately going to have that.

I know. I'm not with the times. I want to ask him, if I had a buddy who went to ballet school and is a hair dresser, would he kind of assume my male friend is gay?Headhunter wrote:Oh come on J-Mac, it's better to double down on these things than walk them back.Jmac Attack wrote:This is a joke.

I figure it is not skin of my back to be judged by idiots. If they can't be bothered to learn about the words they are judging others by, that is their problem.
