They want the shallow stuff which requires no work on their part to understand, think, or gain background knowledge.

I'm sorry that you don't like immigrants or diversity, but part of being a libertarian is accepting that even though other people will frequently do things that you don't personally like, that's no justification for initiating violence against them, or for advocating for the state to do so.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11968441656658845395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890852736639676808.post-49665969759871292312017-08-20T16:26:59.688-04:002017-08-20T16:26:59.688-04:00The future doesn't belong to the victors, it b...The future doesn't belong to the victors, it belongs to the survivors.Donxonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16480364222848672992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890852736639676808.post-68029972289255429932017-08-20T14:55:01.405-04:002017-08-20T14:55:01.405-04:00It’s all about the "left" in your posts....It’s all about the "left" in your posts.

They don’t control the courts, churches and media any more than the right does. Fox News and talk radio aren’t left wing - neither are churches.

Since I didn’t cause Trump to be elected, I can still sit back and maintain that it’s a positive thing for the whole world to see the complete and utter psychological meltdown of the left and the statists in response to him.
