This is why you don’t call yourself a “leftist”

    Thinking that some of these are rightist opinions betrays that these people are liberals

      The person who made the question probably also believes liberalism is a left wing philosophy.

      What's the phrase for positing a question wherein you do not understand the answers you should be receiving, and the people giving you answers largely do not either?

      Being a Hilldawg-hating lib means they'd fit right in on this site, though.

      Maybe these people are fledgling leftists who think they're libs because they think that libs are leftists. Fuck, my brain hurts.

      "I hate the problems, but the causes are so good."

      "I hate poor black people, but because they're poor, not because they're black"

      That to me always translates to "I am intellectually lazy, do not rely on me as I am unreliable."

      I will always get a chuckle at myself for ever calling myself that. I was under some weird impression that the right just HAD to be correct about something, opinions are equal, right?

      Thank fuck I learned that equality of opinion is bullshit, and even if it is, CHUDs would never respect mine so why do I owe CHUDs respect of their opinions?

    The college loan on is correct, but I'm not sure it's possible to save the US school system

    Republicans have almost completed their full control over it by beginning eliminating tenure in states where they get board of regent control.

    I hate :hillary: love guns and don't think forgiving loans will solve the education crisis. Guess I'm right wing as hell.
