I am more "liberal-minded" than conservative by a mile. However, I also am irked by the way some liberals present themselves. It can be like a stereotypical bleeding-heart vegan getting in your face for chewing some pork chops. But realistically, this does not happen often in the real world. If we really mentally seperate our actual interactions with people and the preconceptions that we inherit from internet, television, and our own imaginations, then it turns out that most humans tend to keep their opinions to thenselves.   

this is fairly close to how i feel.  sadly, these illusions are still enough to keep me from calling myself a democrat.  

but hey, libertarian party right?  anyone...?  

I feel like if you hate "liberals", as in the ones who proudly claim to be such, then that is normal. Everything is an us-VS-them mentality these days anyway, so why not. Thats cool. But to just say that you hate the ideals behind "liberals", like more than 90% of them, then you are likely some kind of cretin of a human. I get annoyed by liberal aspects as well, but giving a shit about the less fortunate, the health of our planet and its ecosystem, racial and gender equality, and related peaceful hopes, to say that you hate all of those ideals just isolates you as a confused, hateful person to me. I don't believe in all the liberal ideas, like gun control, death penalty, etc, but damn fuck, why are people so narrow fucking minded BAARRRRGGGHHHAAAA!!!

all true.  

its equally true to say 90%+ of conservatives are not the hawkish elder white male old-money throwback clods that the republican party likes to use as poster boys.  nobody is really in favor of bigger government, or hyperregulation, et cetera.  

the fact that main party platforms are always constructed to be contrary and opposite to the other party is probably a bigger detriment to democracy than all terror groups worldwide put together.  they lock in, and start shaping philosophies to fit the platform, instead of the other way around.  and disagreement with the party line hurts your career;  you might have beliefs that dont jive with the party, but you cant really advocate them, for fear of being frozen out.  

all it accomplishes, is to force both side to take dumb positions on less-polarizing issues theyd otherwise agree on.

Oops, Not really my idea. Just that I agree with the libertarian view of flat tax. And yeah, I'm thinking about it in an idealistic way with no forethought of the problems and consequences that arise from such a system.

i dont have any conspiracy theories regarding isis or a few of these other 'terrorist' groups, except that theres gotta sumn more to it than we can tell.  

all they do, is try as hard as possible to be obnoxious and piss people off.  that cant be their ultimate goal.  

the classic terrorist is a political animal.  unlike them, these guys are not really makin any particular political point;  the focus is on the brutality, and especially on the publicity itself.  they dont recruit social theorists, they recruit people that want to cut heads and fire aks, and will follow orders to do it.  

the nature of a terror org is determined by two things:  tactics, and choice of target [ideology is secondary, unless youre in the organization].  isis et al target whoever is around.  i think they need a new label, cuz terrorist doesnt fit any more.  i proposed, 'omnicidists'.

Perhaps if their god can't have the planet then no one can.   

you may have nailed it, there.  

thus, 'omnicidists'.
