There are many examples... conservatives do not agree that minorities should get all the rights white christians do. It is fact and it is the building blocks of what conservatism is. Back before 1920 when the progressive movement occurred, the entire country was built on the idea of white christians owning black slaves. There was hardly, if any, separation of church and state. Most whites thought blacks were not people....

Do you know what conservatism means? It literally means wanting to keep those pre-progressive movement ideas.


You did take high school history class right?



If you can't provide proof then why do you keep spouting the same horse shit?

Why do liberals think if you tell a lie enough times that makes it true?

Conditional charity is not charity at all. I would be interested to know how much of the religious right's collection plate gets spent on social alienation vs. helping those in need here and abroad. The fact that the Republican coalition, for all the sweet ideals of its libertarian fringe, seems constitutionally incapable of supporting gay rights or racial justice is very telling IMO.

there is so much ignorance in this thread it makes me nauseous



most of the points in the OP are correct IMO.

i dont know how people on this board view me, but if it isnt obvious, i'm like 51% conservative, if you could even consider it that


i dont like whole black and white of 'always be progressive and modify society' and 'always keep things the same'

identifying as pepsi or coke is just stupid. they are the same damn thing. situations and problems should be judged on a case by case basis

but there are way more extremeist left-wingers in america than there are extreiest right-wingers. so i naturally drift to the right, to the lowest concentration of crazies

Should also leave this here.... a legitimate study done that proves low IQ is linked to conservatism and racism, which was mentioned earlier in this thread, which are both proven to be forms of prejudice, linking back to what I was saying about how conservatives discriminate against minorities...

Exactly, things need to be viewed on a case by case basis.... but I see more of these cases being factual and correct in liberal ideology...

the "free market" is a classical liberal principle. but that principle was distorted to its utmost extreme by the reaganites in the 80's, hence the (pejorative) term "neoliberalism", which academics use to describe far right-wing ideology regarding world order and the global economy. but there i go being all informed and knowledgeable and stuff.

:pleasetellmemore:



It was destroyed by FDR.  The academics are by and large useless wankers who make a living inventing bullshit terms for their own self aggrandizement.  Neither neoliberalism nor classical liberalism has anything to do with the modern usage of the word liberalism.

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.” (attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville political philosopher Circa 1835)

No no no no.  Voter ID laws are most certainly not discriminatory.  It disgusts me that you don't have to show proof of citizenship to vote while we are flooded with millions of illegal immigrants.  There is nothing racially or sexually discriminatory about requiring ID for everyone unless you think that women and minorities are too stupid to get a simple ID card.  This is Florida all over when people assumed that all the idiots who left hanging chads were Dem voters.  Why do you think your side is so stupid?

So why don't they just get a fucking ID? :facepalm:

That's like how the NAACP in Cincinnati thinks moving polling stations a mile will disenfranchise blacks from voting because they're for some reason incapable of going one extra mile. Fucking ridiculous. I have to drive six miles to vote and they're too lazy to go a couple blocks down the street.

You have to pay money to get an ID. If you are poor, other people rob you all the time and shit. It is a low level of living. Each time someone jacks your shit (which could contain your ID) you gotta pay another $15-20 to get a new one... not to mention they might need to pay to get a new birth certificate etc etc which all costs money poor people may not have.

That is why the title of the article is how it discriminates against minorities (which I could disagree with) and the POOR

You and zig seem to be conceptualizing an entire voting bloc as a single, relatable individual who is as responsible for himself as each of you are for yourselves. We are actually talking about a group of thousands of people, and their seemingly marginal difference of access to the polls makes a significant difference when the votes are collected.

If you are too stupid to keep your ID should you even vote?  The poor spend more than that on booze in a week.

Prime example of discrimination

Even though that isn't what I said. How can you protect your stuff when you are homeless and sleeping?


I mean shit look at that study I linked maybe because conservatives have a lower IQ than the rest of the population maybe they shouldn't vote!

(while I don't honestly think that, I hope you understand the point I am trying to make)

You get weeks.  It isn't one day like it used to be.  That actually favored the bums because it was a work day for most people.
