Less GOvernment complainers
    #16580209 - 07/24/12 04:37 PM (9 months, 21 days ago)

WTF is wrong with you people. Can someone please pinpoint to me when this happened? Was it the Tea party movement? When did this whole concept of "Less government" come into play? Is it because the republicans are butt hurt that Obama Won? Were people pulling this bullshit with clinton?

Get over yourselves :stonedjerk: Quit complaining about the government when the only direct action they have on you is through taxes. How does the government stop you from doing anything you enjoy (drugs aside). And dont give me the whole DRUGS ARE ILLEGAL, or OMG MY PRECIOUS SHOTGUN THAT I FUCK EVERYNIGHT rant. The government is obviously not stopping you from doing drugs or owning a gun.

And dont give me the whole "tax" rant. Grow up, everyone fucking pays taxes, quit being fucking children :commonsense:

It came into play in the late 1700's when a bunch of farmers and businessmen decided that too much government control was fucked up.  so they wrote a document called the constitution to tell us EXACTLY what powers the government did have. 

It's government of the people, by the people, and for the people--NOT People of the Government, By the Government.

No, it's fucking trolling when you take the contents 3-5 active threads, and throw all the argumentative shit together to elicit the negative responses from those threads.

Look, I used to think you were a good guy. Then this shit started.

This is a continued behavior. It's not funny or cool or awesomesauce or whatever anymore.

I'm just going to repost this from the other thread because it is relevant to about 80% of political discussion on the shroomery. Although most of the political discussion isn't political discussion - it is mostly comprised of ego stroking and ad hominem attacks.

Quote:

Everyone likes to think that they have some fundamental clarity that the opposition is ignorant of. Everyone thinks everyone else is extremely ignorant and stupid. But in reality they just disagree on basic ideologies which often cannot be changed, only evolved. That is the annoying thing about political discussion.

Dystopia, Hey SoreSpore here! I've stalked you around the boards and you have some great posts.

However, I must agree with quoted poster here, that shit is mad gay. Disturbingly gay. It makes Ashton Kutcher look straight.

There has always been a movement to go back to the constitution. This stuff is classical liberalism (now called libertarianism) and is primarily based on John Locke's work which inspired the American Revolution.

As for people being discontented with their government, they have always been there and always will be there. That is, unless we all adopt identical mentalities someday and I don't ever see that happening.
