Why Educators and Entertainers Tend to be Liberals

[vegetariantaxidermy]

Oh bob if only, you mean to be brainwashed by conservative politics, and you mean it so much that it hurts. Bob your political acumen is hopeless. Sorry but it just has to be said.

We support a fair shake for a fair days work bob. That's it. We don't support non profit, we don't support Marxist ideals, and we certainly don't support what would of happened under Hitler. Which clearly you do being a libertarian who merely wants to make everyone a slave to a set of wankers who have no more interest in making a viable way of people getting on than the half assed idiots you despise so much you call politicians, they're weapons grade cnuts bob, they are only out for themselves, they have no more interest in making a better world for anyone than they have for anyone but themselves: you must of noticed that under Bushes neocon crusade?

These people are psychopaths bob, how the hell you don't see it is beyond me but they are utter scum and you would do better to look at people who are not all about the green. And please don't deny it bob we all know you want business to be given such largesse that it is out of all compass with reality and we all should bow down before our one and only true masters: business, the banking institutions and finance hallowed be their names and so we go before the Temples of our Gods, the banks and kneel in praise of the ardent deity we call our Lord. Tea Party it's idiotic bob the sooner you realise that you are brainwashed by the media the better. I can't say I blame you, probably grew up in a hick town listening to weasels who would sell their own government and anyone for a buck, but you need to realise these people are bottom feeders they don't want to make anything but money and they don't want to do so unless it is by climbing over a pile of corpses to get on a gravy train whereby they can fuck over anyone who is not them.

I'm a liberal bob not a communist, I no more think communism or socialism could ever work any more than I do your facile libertarian system that measures up to no one but your own ideals.

Come into the light bob, you don't have to be a liberal but you can't stay here.

I did the best I could to position educators and entertainers for you, but to no avail. Unfortunately, you want it both ways. You want everybody to have a nice life, but the liberal approach is to give everybody a nice life on the backs of people who make it all happen, and my friend, it's just not going to happen that way.

What utter bullshit. You leech off the backs of better people who have slogged and sacrificed so that you can reap the benefit of their discoveries. Many people died for medical and scientific breakthroughs. No one owns that knowledge. It belongs to everyone and no one. Typical American. You think everything is about money.

But it is happening that way. Isn't this the reason you start up this type of thread?

[Ginkgo]

That doesn't make Democrat a synonym for liberal.

You are right. it's non sequitur.

Not to fruition, my friend, not to fruition,

[bobevenson]

You are right. it's non sequitur.

That shows how little you know about American politics.

Actually I know a lot about American politics. However, this is irrelevant. What we are saying is your proposition is a fallacy in first order and propositional logic.

[vegetariantaxidermy]

So? Now Democrat means liberal? Damn you yanks are stupid.

QFT.

Talking to bob is like talking to a brick wall, he has the political savy of a mushroom. You might as well try to explain politics to a fungi, as you would get some sort of rational reasoning from bob.

Yanks I might say are not generally stupid in fact they are amongst the most savy bastards in the political field you will ever come across, bob however is an odd fish. You can talk to most Americans and you can see that they know where the wind blows, and they have usually grown up on a field of politics whereby you just know they are clever little articles that could bury you under a sea of political acumen. And then there is bob.

Is that why 70 per cent of them don't know what their Constitution is, and an even bigger percentage believe in angels? Not my idea of clever.

[Blaggard]

Bob it's easy to understand why you think the Democrats are liberals because you have no left wing, but I can assure you they are one of the more Conservative governments in the Western hemisphere on a par with our Conservative party, it just happens that the Republicans are nearly fascist in their political bent, or at least the neocons are. Centre right is not equal to liberal bob.

[bobevenson]

70 per cent of them don't know what their Constitution is.

Shit, you blokes don't even have a constitution, and that includes the aggregate of your physical and psychological characteristics.

[bobevenson]

Dumb ARSE!

Please, American English only.

... the liberal approach is to give everybody a nice life on the backs of people who make it all happen ...

Bob, the working class are the people who make it all happen. The socialist approach is to get the privileged rich of the backs of the working class. It's not asking for much, unless you are on the side of the rich and privileged.

You want companies to pay workers more than they're worth in a free market. That means you want them to give workers a piggyback ride, right?

[mickthinks]

mick: The socialist approach is to get the privileged rich of the backs of the working class.
bob: You want companies to pay workers more than they're worth in a free market.

No, that's just what you would prefer to argue about, because you have no way of defending your mistaken notions of wealth creation.

What I want is for you to stick to the point even when you think you might have to concede it.



(I've been waiting for that since you joined in 2009. Needless to say, I am not holding my breath.)

[bobevenson]

mick: The socialist approach is to get the privileged rich of the backs of the working class.
bob: You want companies to pay workers more than they're worth in a free market.

No, that's just what you would prefer to argue about.

In other words, you do agree that minimum wage laws should be abolished.

[mickthinks]

Do minimum wage laws give everybody a nice life on the backs of the people who make it all happen?
