You do make me chuckle. A few posts back you were moaning about the media pandering to right-wing prejudices, but when they mount an attack you approve of, they are 'doing their job'! You Anarchists aren't very consistent, but I suppose that is in the nature of being an Anarchist. I'm not sure why accurately reporting what a President has said is an 'attack'. When the President and his senior staff persist in just lying, what are the press supposed to do? Ignore it?
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

I smelled it long ago. I just want people to see how far some will go to defend their delusion of moral superiority.

Once again you falsely attribute things. Hrolf is correct. The left is essentially destructive. Their prime motive and objective is to destroy everything they perceive as 'bad'. No existing handed down custom, institution, law or tradition that does not conform to the 'egalitarian' goal must go - to be replaced by some Marxist nonsensical claptrap.
We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell] |

I'd like to know how you came to that conclusion.

Which is odd, because that's exactly what the left say about the right, well except for the phrase egalitarian and Marxist, substitute those for natural and Fascist clap trap. Its almost as if diametrically oppositional ideological adherents dismiss the opposition on rhetoric and sophistry, rather than engaging in the arguments - and use sweeping generalisations. Hmm its almost as if the extreme fringes of other side don't want to end up admitting that capitalism and socialism both have valid points to make, about each other. Could it be more that people who think like that are actually more about the agenda, and power, than actually being right?

Observation. So via the most unreliable, and invalid source - casual participant observation?

What I said is exactly what happened under Lenin, Stalin, Mao-Tse-Tung and Pol Pot and the Kim dynasty.

Some might be pro-Democrat and Liberal leaning. Unless were using that new 'left' wing which is anything that isn't Republican.
