As the thread has devolved into half a dozen dudes issuing personal attacks, I am out. Just don't ask again why gay people are so fucking angry. Read your posts.
I ask them all the time and it's not because of How you described. Sorry, just because you are gay doesn't mean you speak for all LGBTQ.
When you say "mental problem," most people will assume that you mean a psychological problem.... like schizophrenia. Not something that can be learned and unlearned.
Racism is an environmental or cultural problem. It's what parents or other influences teach a person. But being "liberal" is brain damage. Or an authoritarian government might claim it is and act on it. Be careful what you wish for, it may come true. (Note: Castro's Cuba declared any non-communists "insane" and put them in gulags). Since you'll demand proof: https://fee.org/articles/psychiatry-in-a-communist-utopia/ The Politics of Psychiatry in Revolutionary Cuba by Charles J. Brown and Armando M. Lago (Transaction, 1992) provides irrefutable evidence and graphically documents that the totalitarian government of Cuba has used (and continues to use) psychiatry for political purposes—in this case, political repression, the crushing of dissent, and the establishment of conformity within the political structure of the island prison of communist Cuba.
Have to side with Denny here. Being Racist is learned. Being liberal is the result of a character attribute that you have That is why you can not learn the other view. Further expressed it succinctly yesterday. "No sense discussing it!" The conservative (almost always the thinking type) can learn the feeling (liberal) point of view, but can hardly ever accept it, because it is illogical. Case in point: Liberal: The terrorist are coming, we need to eliminate all guns so the terrorist don't kill us! Conservative: Fuck that! I am buying another so I can deal with them! 2nd Liberal: They are Not terrorist, their homophobes! We need to keep guns from homophobes like most Christians. Obama: Yes, take their guns and religion! We need to talk politely with the followers of the beautiful Q'ran to see what we can do better. I know they will like us when we become kind. Liberal: Yes! (Sitting on the floor of Congress) 2nd Liberal: Yes! ( pouting on the floor of Congress) Conservative: Fuck you all! (buying four more boxes of ammo)
I do think being a republican is brain damage, too. But barfo has to feel it where it hurts for it to sink in.
Meanwhile at their evil lair, the true oligarchy that runs this country laugh about how they convinced the people that it matters if they're a Republican or Democrat.
This is a common misunderstanding. A lair is typically filled with evil people, but it does not mean the lair itself is evil. Lairs have often been reused for non-evil purposes, such as nightclubs, furniture stores, or boutique hotels. barfo
