You are not really saying anything.

Everyone has some bias.

Try and remove yourself from it, it will widen your mind and help you understand why others have so different of views then you have. Try to walk a mile in someone's shoes before judging them.

Learn to identify when your option is simply based on you're bias.

Not everyone has you're bias based on economic stature. Etc....

Some people where I live completely lose their minds at the thought they didn't receive their weekly flyers. Meanwhile in some poor countries they are dying by thousands. And don't even complain.

Try and wrap your mind around why that is

You do realize that most Canadians don't like Trump or what he stands for. As a conservative, I'm actually embarrassed by people on this forum that claim to be conservatives.

I'm sure you also understand that this feeling you have is mutual.

So, you approve of hurling racial epithets and obscenities at strangers?

Nice to know.


In this country that could be considered a criminal offense, a bloody big blunt instrument. I think people should have the right to be an idiot no matter what side they're on. But giving a pass to one side while criminalising the other is equally idiotic. No one has the right to not be offended, but that's not what the left thinks.

How could we possibly be free in a society where it's frowned upon to be deliberately insulting to people?
sh!t
We're on the same page

Leftards want to do all the talking because that way they don't have to deal with any non gibberish.
Well, to be fare (sic), its safe to say that the expensive NLP tactics the wealthy use to control the useful idiots works somewhat...on some people
The rest they just pay...like protesters

The NDAA Legalizes The Use Of Propaganda On The US Public
The amendment — proposed by Mac Thornberry (R-Texas) and Adam Smith (D-Wash.) and passed in the House last Friday afternoon — would effectively nullify the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948, which explicitly forbids information and psychological operations aimed at influencing U.S. public opinion.

Re: People who are concerned about the dangers of political correctness are idiots

A dictatorship demands political correctness, so long as it applies to the orthodoxy. Your point is that you call those who don't subscribe to the orthodoxy are idiots when in fact it is the idiots who demand it at the behest of the orthodoxy. Free speech is stifled, which is why Stalin, among others referred to a mindless follower as a useful idiot, " идиот".

Good reply.

Yes I've noticed this.

It's the blowhard, alt right types that get offended the most.

We should probably take away their voting rights



Nobody is more ''politically correct'' than the delusional far right.

Idiots come in all flavours.



I edited the title about three times and was in a rush.

It happens.

Now to be fair, there are people who voted for Donald Trump because they were afraid of political correctness and that's truly stupid.

I,m not surprised to witness you comment on stupid. It must be a thrill for you to contribute something of substance.

Really? You're also embarrassed by the people on this forum that claim to be conservative? I never would have guessed.

I'm conservative and embarrassed that he's allowed to post here pretending to conservativistic bent, when he's obviously a slim stick what bends the way the wind blows. Boiled in coconut oil he should be and feed to sled dogs./

I always thought of it as a strength. My ability to think without my own bias. My ability to walk in someone else's shoes, to imagine why someone has a different opinion then mine.

I'm more center then left wing or right wing. I understand life is relative to circumstances. Left wing solution and right wing solution can both be good under diffrente circumstances

I doubt many of you here have the intelligence to understand that kind of deep understanding of the world.

Yes the way you belligerently peddled the same BS about capitalism when practically the entire forum was showing you up was clearly evidence of that lol
