The best part of ...Yes, it is all window dressing. The best part of being a liberal is that #'s 1-3 don't mean anything. Nothing will come of them. They are something to talk about that sounds like there is substance there, but in actuality, are nothing more than bullet points on a powerpoint presentation. <br /><br />Number's 4 and 5 are the only ones that really matter. It's the same tried and true neo-liberal response to "supporting the rebels in {flavor of the month country}". We don't want to support the "bad" rebels. We want to support the guys who are truly fighting for the correct reasons (while participating in all the same horrible, authoritarian shit...but with GOOD INTENTIONS). <br /><br />I mean, you can't discuss the issue with this mentality because there is no argument there. Of course, we would like to not be scared shitless by the police. Of course, we would like to support only the "good guys." Any opposing evidence of these issues is merely dismissed as not demilitarizing in the "right way" or finding the "true good guys."<br /><br />Liberals entire ideology is one big No True Scotsman fallacy. d.mantishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03817778296282926641noreply@blogger.com
