A big difference between liberals and conservatives
« on: August 09, 2022, 08:20:59 AM »
Being politically conservative (different from being a conservative person), I am sure I can have different opinions with other conservatives, but we can still agree to disagree.

However, it looks like liberals do not share in this kind of polite agreeableness (different from being in agreement) and anyone not sharing their total ideology is the enemy.

Just about right.

Liberals do see conservatives as a mortal enemy.  Why they increasingly use the tools of state (FBI et al) to destroy those that refuse to submit.

Usually conservatives chicks are hotter than liberal ones. With the exception of the abortion thing. I've seen more hotter chicks than normal on the pro abortion side considering it's a liberal support.  So u know those hot chicks are DTF which is why they want abortions to remain legal.

5. Hawaii is the only Western state without a statewide citizens initiative process. Do you support such a process?

No. The commonly held view is that citizens initiatives are more democratic than the legislative process. I disagree.

6. Thanks to their campaign war chests and name familiarity, incumbents are almost always re-elected in Hawaii legislative races. Should there be term limits for state legislators, as there are for the governor’s office and county councils? Why or why not?

I do not support term limits for legislators (or for county council members for that matter). The primary reason is that there are no term limits for civil service employees or even for political appointees. Term-limiting legislators simply transfers more power to the executive branch, which is already far and away the dominant branch at the state level and the federal level. Knowledge is power and a civil servant with 20 years of experience simply knows more than a legislator who has been in office for six or seven years.

I have yet to see a Democrat safely handle a gun at Kokohead.

Yes, you are.  One just has to look at the recent Super Debate.  Big difference between the Democrat Debate and the Republican Debate.

You could almost smell the swamp coming out of the tv screen when they had the Democrat Debate.

The Republican party is far from conservative. Those values are long gone. How can you call a party that supports the elimination of democracy conservative?

Please do not hold the Republican Party as the ideal standard for what conservatives want.

But we often have to choose between pure shit (liberal democrats) and a shitty tasting cake.

For example, many conservatives don't actually like Trump but look who we have to choose from on the other side?

Anyway it is a shitty situation all around but we are trying to MAKE DO (no pun intended) with the best choice.

It's telling that liberals don't even see that they are making the WORST choices (not only in elections but everything else) and that liberals are HYPOCRITES.

(e.g., my body my choice, as applied differently to abortions versus injections).

This right here lol. I don’t really like trump. He has a ton of character flaws and worst part of him is he can’t seem to get out of his own way. However he’s the best option to me. Because he’s literally the only one that isn’t (politically) insane and he came into office and did a lot of what he said he was gonna do. Yet I get labeled a cultist  :crazy: :crazy:

I remember when it was like a rite of passage to say liberal stuff to get some granola in the sheets, but these days they look like dayglo walruses on crack

And when did conservative chicks get so hot? They used to be stuffy sexually repressed bible thumpers.

It's like the species is trying to correct an error in the genetic code.

Yes and no. It depends what crowds you are dealing with. There is no shortage of militantly intolerant liberals but there are loads of liberals who share this kind of polite agreeableness.

Its just that like with all things media the loud more extreme voices get the attention. AOC and Trump get the most attention instead of the moderates.

When can people go back to being able to be living in the middle ?
Now that I think about it, what do you call the middle? Independent.

I hate the Primaries. Should just go straight to a General election.
Then we could vote both sides of the fence on anyone we want.

Y'all know what a moderate is?
A person that cannot take a position.
Defend that position, or even fight for it.

I do disagree with both his points. That's a politician that should go. I'd definitely look at his democratic opponents.

Yeah, dumping gasoline on them is a better idea.

Or beating the fire out with a bat, but i would not expend that much energy on them.

How about we just stop labeling each other. There's sound and reason then there's just stupid, ignorant and dumb. The latter is not worth listening to but thanks to social media we give power to these people. It is almost as fascinating as watching a train wreck in slo-mo. Just turn it off. Go outside.

As opposed to a right winger or left winger who can't take their own position? Personally I prefer nuance instead of choking on Trump's balls.
