Understanding the Liberal Mindset

[Trausti]

And over the past few months thre are signs that the MAGA Colition is starting to splinter.
One divide is foreign affaris, where the MAGA evangelicals want the US to come to ISrael's aid, including troops, but many not Evagelical MAGAS don't want the USA to get invovlved. This divideis only going to widen.

If they try that, it will trigger massive protest and probably massive violence.

Just amazing. The OT is about the liberal mindset but instead we get MAGA.

Because the poster was not making any argument but simply mentioning Trump for no reason whatsoever. Pointing out that lefties attack anyone or anything they don't like as Nazis or worse is not "Nazi Propaganda." You are simply trying to shut off argument with name calling as you obviously have no actual rebuttal.

I posted proof of Stonetoss's Nazi propaganda. Unless you think Holocaust denial is not Nazi propaganda, in which case, I think what we actually need is a thread attempting to decipher the conservative mindset, as that would be a far more important mystery to solve.

What does that have to do with anything? You are purposely trying to avoid that lefties attack anyone or anything they don't like as Nazis. You've not refuted that at all. Indeed, you're just proving it correct.

You must be joking.

Not at all. It's been demonstrated several times in this very thread.

Where?

Where?

Here:

Liberal Progressives (Lib-Progs) consider themselves as the bastions of Social Justice. They claim to believe in each individual's right to an autonomous, self-directed life, free from restrictions. They claim to believe in freedom of speech, arguing that is it an important part of challenging existing ideas and finding truth. Lib-Progs have an absoluteness about their mindset. They are utterly convinced they are always the good guys, that they are the final arbiter of right and wrong, and that anyone who doesn't think the way they do are the bad guys. They are also utterly convinced that they, and only they, know what's best for society.

Here:

"Liberal" is very broad. I'd be called a liberal 40 years ago. Probably not anymore. But the far-left has always hated the West and allied itself with groups and ideologies that also hate the West. Israel is a proxy for the West. So any group that opposes the West will be sacralized by the far-left, and their behavior excused no matter how atrocious.

Here:

I find it fascinating that the people that routinely label all conservatives as racist, sexist, homophobic, etc., get upset when someone applies labels and stereotypes on them.

Here:

You* express hatred for those on the right who don't express empathy to your satisfaction, but the moment someone votes differently from you, all that empathy goes out the window. People transform before your eyes, from human beings making flawed choices, into subhuman monsters who deserve everything their oppressors do to them, and deserve none of the moral goods you have in store for the real humans who agree with you.

I could go to other threads for examples as well.

You're the one who posted the cartoons of a neo-Nazi in the thread. Nobody made you do that.

You're the one who could have admitted that it was inadvertent. You chose not to do that.

If you don't want to be open to criticism in this thread, then don't post in the thread. If you keep doubling down, then you're gonna get called out on it.

How is any of that attacking someone for lack of ideological purity?

You make no sense. "One death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic." ~ Joseph Stalin. Stalin was a maniacal mass murderer. Doesn't mean his observation is wrong.

Well this managed to somehow get even stupider

How interesting that smartcooky sought to teach everyone about the Libbburrrul minds, and yet it has been quite an extraordinary insight into the right-wing mind instead. Not that we found anything we didn’t suspect.

I understand the cartoon just fine. It is you who does not understand that, in an ironic but unsurprising twist, you are spreading the propaganda of a holocaust denying neo-Nazi.

I'm willing to chalk it up as a mistake, provided you are willing to admit the error. Ball's in your court.

Yup, I agree, and someone using a cartoon to prove an opinion based on blanket statements (BS) that tries to prove (as a fact) that ALL liberals are evil is as funny as it gets.

They should interview ALL liberals first before they make false statements like that.

Anyway, Happy New Years everyone!!!

The argument I keep hearing from the Trausti, Cooky, Prestige, Zig is that us Libs care too much. And they may be right. I also hear from them is that they care about those less fortunate. Just not enough to help them.

I would love once to see an actual consistent definition of "liberal" that is not "person who doesn't believe what we believe", or "person who believes what we think they believe rather than what they say they believe".

Actually (like I posted earlier), I don't believe there is such a thing as a consistent liberal mindset, because it varies from liberal to liberal, unless you consider empathy as something consistent, but then again, that is just my opinion, and as always, your mileage may vary of course.
