Have you noticed that all the majority of liberals do is whine, yet they never do anything about it. They just sit their, on their computers whining about the most trivial matters and prioritising higher then important matters.

For instance they would probably care more about a picture of Jesus being hung up in school then a terrible terrorist attack killing thousands of people and causing despair for many.

Does anyone else notice this?

Yes I realise the irony of me also whining on the computer

Welcome to NS General forum. I'll give your post a C-. Keep up the good work and you will soon be getting A+.

Yes, liberals do have a tendancy to whine and blame everyone but themselves for their situation. But...that's life.

Yeah, like they whined and bitched about a party that wasn't in power and had little influence for 6 years...

...oh, and bitched and whined about a made up 'war on christmas because someone decided to pluralize all the holidays happening during a short period of time including New Years Day.

And when they complain about their religion be oppressed because they can't use government institutions to compel people to practice it.

or...now, wait...those aren't liberals...

Some of them don't take responsibility either. It is very unfortunate that people in both parties are more worried about getting re-elected than doing what is right. I'm about to give up on the political process. With few exceptions, in the last election most of my votes were cast as a protest against the 'status quo."

ive only noticed you whining about evolution and liberals without putting forth one real example.

(with all due respect) Not to flame or anything. I'm not saying all lefties are bad, and I'm not saying conservatives didn't have their share of nastiness in human history. Here are some things they whined about in history that did or almost caused more tragic loss of life. For those reasons I encourage people not to be radical but just sensible human beings who use reason rather than conservative or liberal mindsets. Most famous scientists who made discoveries had minds based on reason which is why they opposed both the left wing and the right.

Liberals whine about how life is too hard and intolerant so now the human race is forced to tolerate destructive things and people like criminals and people with dangerous mindsets. They come up with untrue doctrines just so that they don't go nuts or kill themselves because deep down they know that they are too weak and whiny to deal with real life.(and note that I know because I expeirenced this and this is why I changed) Trust me before I became centrist I've been there. These false doctrines screw up the law system and cause senseless laws to be passed. This also resulted in the justice system pitying the criminal more than the victim.

They whine about police and government and how they try to actually enforce rules. I hear it all the time. :( This encourages crime and terrorism.

Their mindset caused caused the US to lose Vietnam in the sense that they didn't want the US to bomb buildings just kill troops, they almost cancelled the Manhattan Project which would have resulted in the death of more US soldiers who wanted to go back home to their families, the left wing in Germany during the 1930's became armed and violent and angered Hitler into forming the third reich.

Do you also realise what kind of post such generalised blanket statements also is called?

Welcome to NS General. You'll find the rules here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=410573).

Trolling: Posts that are made with the aim of angering people. (like 'ALL JEWS ARE [insert vile comment here]' for example). Also is used to refer to making obviously silly topics that people nonetheless will reply to. (making a case for the proof that teletubbies exist for instance. There will always be someone who feels compelled to post 'No they don't.' Threads like this should just be ignored.)
Flamebait: Posts that are made with the aim of angering someone indirectly. Not outright flame, but still liable to bring angry replies. It's in the same context of trolling but with flamebaiting it's just the one person.

Yea, but if you're too hard it could discourage him, and he wouldn't come back. Which would be a pity, because there's some potential there.

I tell my students what Denis Leary says--"Life's hard. Get a helmet." Of course, I'm dealing with college kids here, and my failure rate is low. Of the 80 students I had last term, I failed 4. 1 for plagiarism, 1 who failed himself by flaking out at the end of the term, and 2 for just doing shitty work. And they didn't technically fail--they just got D's in a class that required a C minimum to move on.

Being young and/or a student hardly has anything to do with it. I cant tell you how many older (for the sake of argumentation, we'll assume older to include all people 40 years of age and above) people i've seen at protests right along side the younger people. Radical activism is in no way dependent on age

Hippys do and students do, buts not because they are liberal, just because they are young and radical. All non student or hippy liberals just whine whine whine.

So... All these mythical "liberals" do is whine. Except the liberal hippies. And the liberal students... Se how it's all starting to fall apart? It's because sweeping generalisations don't work!

OMg this thread is stupid.
Truest words you've written.

The difference between me and liberals:

Me - ranted for the first time ever on a thread

Liberals - rant all the god damn time about all the most trivial shit.
What "liberals" are you talking about now? And what, pray tell, is this "trivial shit"?

Lets assume that most liberals (even non hippys and students) are always involved in activism. They still spend most of their time being involved in activism for very trivial things, which doesn't really affect our lives that much.

To assume is to make an ass out of u+me.
If no-one was ever to protest, or anything like that,nothing would ever change.Therefore,they make a big difference.

Radical activism is in no way dependent on age

Yeah, like they whined and bitched about a party that wasn't in power and had little influence for 6 years...

...oh, and bitched and whined about a made up 'war on christmas because someone decided to pluralize all the holidays happening during a short period of time including New Years Day.

And when they complain about their religion be oppressed because they can't use government institutions to compel people to practice it.

or...now, wait...those aren't liberals...

they almost cancelled the Manhattan Project which would have resulted in the death of more US soldiers who wanted to go back home to their families
The Manhattan Project was ordered by one of America's most left-wing presidents, FDR.

the left wing in Germany during the 1930's became armed and violent and angered Hitler into forming the third reich.
A classic Nazi lie. The fascists were the violent ones, not the centre-left.


Most famous scientists who made discoveries had minds based on reason which is why they opposed both the left wing and the right.

Most post-Enlightenment left and right-wing ideologies are products of reason.

If by ‘liberal’ you’re referring to Marcus Brigstocke, then he did no such thing whatsoever. He is presenting a comedy show, which deals with political issues. He doesn’t ‘jump up and down screaming’.

What episode was it? The one with the Times journalist when they were discussing Trident?

Furthermore, and more importantly, why on earth are you labelling people such as Brigstocke as liberals? If you live in the UK, a ‘liberal’ refers to someone with a view of limited government, following in the traditions of John Locke. Karl Popper and Robert Nozick are two modern liberals.

Yes but they don't just whine, they protest, negotiate, advertise and just do something about it.
And here we have the crux of his argument:
His side, "protest, advertise and negotiate"
The other side, "whine"

anyone else see the irony implicit here?

Liberals whine about how life is too hard and intolerant so now the human race is forced to tolerate destructive things and people like criminals and people with dangerous mindsets. They come up with untrue doctrines just so that they don't go nuts or kill themselves because deep down they know that they are too weak and whiny to deal with real life. (and note that I know because I expeirenced this and this is why I changed) Trust me before I became centrist I've been there. These false doctrines screw up the law system and cause senseless laws to be passed. This also resulted in the justice system pitying the criminal more than the victim.

They whine about police and government and how they try to actually enforce rules. I hear it all the time. :( This encourages crime and terrorism.

Their mindset caused caused the US to lose Vietnam in the sense that they didn't want the US to bomb buildings just kill troops, they almost cancelled the Manhattan Project which would have resulted in the death of more US soldiers who wanted to go back home to their families, the left wing in Germany during the 1930's became armed and violent and angered Hitler into forming the third reich.

Have you noticed that all the majority of liberals do is whine, yet they never do anything about it. They just sit their, on their computers whining about the most trivial matters and prioritising higher then important matters.

For instance they would probably care more about a picture of Jesus being hung up in school then a terrible terrorist attack killing thousands of people and causing despair for many.

Does anyone else notice this?

Yes I realise the irony of me also whining on the computer

No. But I do realize that all that all that most conservatives do is whimper and masturbate to picutres in Guns and Ammo.

They never want to do anything constructive, just tear down the constructive things that other people do. If the hardest working people in the country want to unionize to see to it that their hard work is justly rewarded, they complain that it's a communist plot because they're such cowards that they're afraid a dead economic ideology is going to shuffle from out of the grave and zombify them. Zombify them more I mean.

When teachers try to explain what will help students learn as well as students in the rest of the developed world they are afraid that it's a liberal plot to make America like Europe with tolerant educated people. Nothing would scare a conservative more than a nation full of educated people.

Does anyone at all notice that conservatives are nothing but cowards?

Well,in their countries,they are obliged to wear the veil by their culture,often forced to by men in the country.In this country,where we have a few more civil rights,they can take the veil off if they want-it's not written in the Qur'an,so they're under no religious obligation to wear it-and some choose not to.Some choose to wear it,and they're under every right to do so if they want to.We can't force them to take it off,much like people can't force them to put it on in their own countries.

I'm sure there are many women in those muslim countries who are forced to wear the veil, but I am just as sure that there are as many who would wear it anyway. What has it got to do with you lefties.

Just as in the UK. A lot of the women ARE FORCED to wear it, but you would never get a lefty to admit it. Recently, those (in the UK) who have chosen to wear the veil are making a political statement out of it. And it is a political statement that has nothing to do with being liberal. So in reality a liberal is having to support a non-liberal viewpoint.

Yes you are right, but the lefties who whinge about oppression of women having to wear the veil in muslim countries are by definition not allowing those persons in those countries the freedom to express their own culture - they are trying to impose their own leftist view points. As such they are not being tolerant and accepting - (Is that an oxymoron ? -

How on earth are things like freedom of personal choice and freedom of expression "non-liberal viewpoints"?

There is a certain political faction amongst the muslim community, in the UK, who are using the veil as a means of political expression. This is "liberal" expression, because they are allowed in a democratic society to do so. However, the actual polictics of these muslims are anything but liberal - Unless you accept that islamic fundamentalism is libralism in action. Can you see where I am going with this?

The liberal left in the UK say it is wrong that women are forced to wear the veil in muslim countries. Maybe - maybe not, but "liberalism" means you shouldn't critisice their culture anymore than they should criticise ours. Maybe they could argue that men should also wear the veil to make things equal :)

There are women in the UK who are forced to wear the veil - yet the liberal left can't understand that by backing the women's rights in the UK to wear the veil they are not able to help these other women who are forced to wear the veil.

The only analagy I can think of is - In the UK it is against the law to go naked in public. I doubt if many women in the UK would "choose" to go naked, in public, should that law ever be repealed!:D. The only difference is that men in the UK are not allowed to go naked either.

Sorry I am just lacking the intellect to argue this out any further - Can anyone help me out?

Whining liberals are not really libertarians. A true libertarian believes in free will , as such they should be pleased that people use their freewill to not to have the same points of view as themselves.

I think true liberatarians should think along the lines of :
respect the right of people to say and do the things they do - what ever they are - as they have the freewill to do it. I (as a libertarian) only have the right to ignore you not to criticise you!

Obviously as an authoritarian you should think along the lines of:
Everyone should do and say as I do - As such I have the right to criticise you and if you ignore me I'll force my views aupon you.

So, IMHO "whining liberals" are really authoritarian and not libertarian and should despise themselves for not understanding the true meaning of libertarianism.
:(

My political compass is economic left/right 1.31
authoritarian/libertarian -0.21
as such I am cursed with being sympathetic to everyone's point of view and never being able to hold a view of my own!;)

I haven't read the whole thread but perhaps you might have noticed that the liberals whined all the way to the ballot box to dump the dangerous Republicants from power. I dare say that if Bush had been up for re-election, he would have been gone too.

Have you noticed that all the majority of liberals do is whine, yet they never do anything about it. They just sit their, on their computers whining about the most trivial matters and prioritising higher then important matters.

For instance they would probably care more about a picture of Jesus being hung up in school then a terrible terrorist attack killing thousands of people and causing despair for many.

Does anyone else notice this?

Yes I realise the irony of me also whining on the computer

I for one am a pragmatic whining liberal.

There's only so much liberal whining I can do in a day, and I'm sure as hell not wasting it on terrorist attacks or cunning conspiracies. Pictures of jesus have been known to fall off the wall, and global warming would be somewhat ameliorated by right-wing nutbags turning off their computer in disgust.

That's the whole point of liberalism: to accept that which is not your own thoughts. It's all part of tolorance and acceptance and a realization that not everything need be the same.
The Harm Principle is another liberal tenet. Relativism is not.

Yes you are right, but the lefties who whinge about oppression of women having to wear the veil in muslim countries are by definition not allowing those persons in those countries the freedom to express their own culture - they are trying to impose their own leftist view points. As such they are not being tolerant and accepting - (Is that an oxymoron ?
Oh no, they want to let women wear what they want! The imperialists!

I am sorry I just don't have the words to express myself any more clearly).

But don't you see that lacking the words to express yourself also means that you lack the words to conduct yourself? Like it or not we can't analyze complex issues with our guts, contrary to Stephen Colberts gastroenterological-neurological theory. All our guts are able to produce is shit. Make an effort to improve your vocabulary and you'll see the intellectual product of your guts for yourself.

Lacking the vocabulary to express yourself leaves you prey to those who have that vocabulary but choose to use your limited one to exploit your ignorance.

e.g. The religious wing-nuts who try to convince us that it is intolerant not to tolerate the intolerance of the religiously intolerant.

It is not imposing a view onto others when you create a situation in which they are able to express their own view. It is not oppression to attempt to get oppressive powers to stop oppressing others.

As a left-wing liberal I do right to stand up for what i believe in. I don't think that we should always accept the government we are handed. I think we should take matters into our own hands.

I am in a group that is activly trying to change the nation and the world we live in. The people who whine are usually the ones who sit ont their complacent butts and do nothing and let it happen.

Coming in late here, and have not read all the posts, so let me first respond to the OP.

Have you noticed that all the majority of liberals do is whine, yet they never do anything about it. They just sit their, on their computers whining about the most trivial matters and prioritising higher then important matters.

For instance they would probably care more about a picture of Jesus being hung up in school then a terrible terrorist attack killing thousands of people and causing despair for many.

You are so off base. You obviously understand very little about what liberals tend to believe. So allow me to enlighten you.

Firsy, I myself am liberal, and have many liberal friends. Not one of us sits around "whining" We volunteer, we do campaign work, we lobby, and we vote.

Second. Yes, we believe in freedom of religion, on which America was founded. We also believe in separation of church and state. The Constitution prohibits the states from allowing a centralized religion. Which makes the point of allowing it to be pushed in schools moot, as it is a step towards that end. So, in essence, you're stating that you have a problem with liberals defending the Constitution which has laid the very foundation of the country? That's intelligent.

As for the terrorist attack, we are certainly not immune to its devastation. However, we are also intelligent enough to realize it was no reason whatsoever to go to war in *Iraq*. No, my friend, THAT was a decision about oil and power. Nothing else.

Please. The next time you want to make a point, cure that ignorance bug before typing. You'll look much more intelligent.

This could hardly be less hypocritical, when you actually think about it. Which seems more "supportive" to you - trying to get you back home to your family, or trying to keep you in a dangerous situation? Gee, tough call.


Claim to be humanitarian but support infanticide.

Assuming you're attempting to refer to abortion here, my answer is no, they claim to be humanitarian, and actually believe that women are human, too! :rolleyes:

Want to help the poor but pick the most inefficient method to do it.

Says you. Until you can substantiate that opinion with actual facts, you can hardly claim that disagreeing with you is hypocritical.

Support equality by giving more opportunities to a person because of their race

Oddly enough, part of being equal is helping those who are at a disadvantage. Funny how that works.

I am not an American liberal, and I really don't see the Hypocracy there. It could easily be said in reverse.
The right is mad to say they support the US soldiers and yet they are happy to send them to their deaths in a place they have no good reason to be.

Claim to be humanitarian but support infanticide.

Since I can't imagine a single liberal supporting infanticide I am guessing you are referring to a womans right to chose to use contraception or abortion.
Its hardly hypocritical to be a humanitarian and to support womens rights....

Want to help the poor but pick the most inefficient method to do it.

Yeah 'cause rampant capatalism is doing a great job of looking after the worlds poor :rolleyes:

Yeah so its hypocritical to support equality by attempting to make things equal... real hypocritical..

Millions of American women would be alive and well and with us today if they had not been ripped from their mothers and burned up with hospital refuse over the past 30 years.
Once again, the poor are always at a disadvantage. How can you claim an entire race is at a disadvantage without being a racist yourself?

So if every white person in the country was thrown in jail and all their worldly goods redistributed. If they were then all released because the racist "lock up the whites" policy was stopped are you saying that it would be racist to give them any support if you didn't also give the same support to the rest of the population who hadn't been locked up??

In order for things to be equal they have to be equalised... that doesn't just magically happen when you stop being racist.

Second, YES, we care about religious freedom on which America was founded. We care about separation of church and state. The constitution expressly forbids the creation of a centralized religion, so you can bet your arse we fight it happening. Allowing religion to be pushed down children's throats in school is a step toward that end. So in essence you're saying you have a problem fighting to uphold the Constitution on which our freedoms are based? That's intelligent.

We are also not oblivious to the devastation caused by a terrorist attack. However, we are intelligent enough to do the research and understand that 9/11 was NO reason to go to war in *Iraq* That move was purely for oil and control.

True, women have no right to murder their children. I'm quite certain I didn't suggest they did. They do, of course, have the right not to be forced to carry unwanted fetuses to term against their will.

Well, about your affirmative action response....funny thing is, the poor are always at a disadvantage, whereas you could only claim that an entire race was at a disadvantage of your were a racist yourself.

Or, y'know, I could claim that, on average, black people are at a disadvantage because the facts back me up. Discrimination manifestly exists; admitting that to be the case and working to fix it is rather obviously not racist.

It might be of some interest to note that if you gathered 100 randomly-selected white American citizens in a room with 100 randomly-selected black American citizens and 100 randomly-selected latino American citizens, there would be a lot more poor black and latino citizens than there would be poor white citizens.

because the white people are rich, on the average, me must give the black people an advantage because being of a higher class is wrong and puts us in the position of restoring equality by taking from the already rich.
