Post Race!

[dday9]

I would like a decent argument as to why I should support any liberal candidate/president.

Or better yet, why liberal ideas trump(no pun intended) conservative ones.

Liberalism is based on rational sensible thought and conservatism is based on religious nonsense.

Sorry but that's all I got.

In all honesty, I tend not to get too caught up in talks about conservatism, or liberalism, feminism or any other -isms. These ideas are too divisive and only serve to cause strife between otherwise content people. Seems more like a plot by oligarchs to distract a population so they don't realize how badly they're getting shafted from the day they're born to the day they die.

I disagree, but I'll leave it at that. I'm content with my last names rant I went on.

Ok......moar mermaids ?

[Shaggy Hiker]

Yeah. If you take the post-race political, that would just be bad.

However, I would have to say that anybody who can't find something to make fun of Trump about is either dead or worse.

[Niya]

Yeah. If you take the post-race political, that would just be bad.

Worse....it would be pointless. My definition of politics is the proliferation of almost useless information, conjectures and statistics designed to dazzle a population into blindness so that they do not see how they are being ruthlessly extorted by a tiny fraction of that population.

[Niya]

Ever think about why there are rich people in the world ? It is because over centuries of human development they have slowly created systems that enable the hoarding of resources on a massive scale. Politics is one of those things designed to keep people from paying too much attention to these systems. They're too busy fighting over who is liberal and who is conservative. Who is pro-choice or pro-life. If this politician or that is better at foreign policy.

[Niya]

Now when I say rich....I don't mean petty millionaires. I'm talking billionaires. Why in God's name would any one person need such excessive resources. He can't possibly eat any better with 10 billion dollars than he can with 10 million. Systems that facilitate such massive hoarding at the hands of a single individual is grossly unjust especially when there are good people out there struggling for even the simplest necessities.

[Niya]

Don't mistake me though, if I figure out the password to give me access to the system of hoarding(Rags to riches)....I would hoard my ass off. As unjust as it is, I'm not here to change the world, I'd exploit it just as quickly. I'm just not gonna pretend that its right.

[Niya]

Ok....nuff of that nonsense.....Moar mermaids ?

[dday9]

Donald Trump wears a toupee. Hehe.

Liberalism (from French libéralisme circa 1818 < Latin liber "free") is focused on freedoms such as free and fair elections and the right to vote, little government, limited government powers e.g the separation of powers, trial by jury, civil rights, freedom of speech, association, the press, religion, markets and trade, etc. Liberalism rejects notions such as "hereditary privilege, state religion, absolute monarchy, and the Divine Right of Kings"- Wiki. As a result liberalism also represents the right of the public to overthrow tyrants where ever they may be found.

Conservatism from the Latin servāre meaning "I watch over, maintain; I protect, keep, guard, save" usually refers to a risk adverse and slowly progressive society when used in relation to politics. "There is no single set of policies that are universally regarded as conservative, because the meaning of conservatism depends on what is considered traditional in a given place and time. Thus, conservatives from different parts of the world—each upholding their respective traditions—may disagree on a wide range of issues." - Wiki.

Historically conservatism represented the traditional hereditary aristocracy and was thus directly opposed to liberalism although liberalism, over time, was able to successfully replace those ideologies focusing on the centralization of power and is now viewed as the "dominant ideology of modern times" - Wiki. As a result in the United States a political conservative is now defined as "A person who favors decentralization of political power" (e.g -> http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/political_conservative).

Liberalism at an international level led to the creation of the United Nations after World War II, and the emergence of an international federation called Liberal International which is based in England at 1 Whitehall Place, London, SW1A 2HD see -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_International Furthermore "most of the world's richest and most powerful nations are liberal democracies with extensive social welfare programs" - Wiki.

Completely wrong!!

Sorry but that's all I got.

You need to stop burning those books!

The less the public knows the better???

Seems more like a plot by oligarchs to distract a population so they don't realize how badly they're getting shafted from the day they're born to the day they die.

Well historically conservatism was linked to monarchies and oligarchies although both of those ideologies have since faded or died!
