Except they're lefties, not liberals. Quite illiberal, in fact.
They are also opposed to individuals and freedom.
Political correctness : oppose the politburo and they will correct you. Certainly the worst form of govt for the masses. If the opposition to any religion is a value. Consider it is derived from not wanting people to congregate or have anything or
Any God to supersede the states power. Slavemasters!
The left likes to accuse conservatives of fascism.
I say throw that accusation right back into their faces.
For one thing, a lot of them don't expect that.
That's what makes it fun.
This video brings back memories. No cell phones prevalent just as yet, MTV was worth watching (or leaving on like a radio) and a happy song to listen to as I drove to the prison back during the 80s~

I would really like to know what it's all about when people say Marxists defends religion. I know it's not correct, but what's it all about. It's almost as if words like Marxism and religion are losing their meaning.
As a development from the Enlightenment modern socialism, especially Marxism, argues well against Islamic fundamentalism in particular, and even Islam in general. Marxism is materialist. Marxists are opposed to mysticism, whether Buddhist, Christian, Muslim, or Wiccan, or whatever else.
More deeply, socialism (especially Marxism) is an economic philosophy: the Sharia (and traditional Christian and Jewish) modes of commerce are antithetical to socialism. You could do business in the ISIL Caliphate a lot easier than you could in the old USSR or even Norway today.
The USSR put the first woman in space. Women in the USSR were doctors, engineers, even KGB lawyers with general officer rank.
For all of those reasons and many others you would be challenged to find many on the left who support ISIS or excuse it.
VOTES! Legal or otherwise.
Don't overthink this.
I used to have a coworker who'd off and on say in a matter of fact tone that he saw UFOs all the time. One day I asked him where did he see most of those UFOs. He replied that was when he was out in the woods hunting. So there you have it. Yes-siree bob!
Puddinghead ibs really think their oh so special Muslims will happily go along with the socialist version of a global utopia without Sharia law ruling everybody.
Meanwhile Soros is just a loose cannon, so feckless that he's caused revolutions in countries on both sides. If he ever figures out what he's doing, something will need to be done about him. I just hope Trump, or his replacement, figures it out before Soros does.
My dad died one day short of making it to his 99th birthday summer before last..
I drove on until the car computer cut off the engine so it would not lock up. Lucky me. Only then did I realize I was really screwed.
Relatives came to the rescue. We had to wait two hours for the wrecker to show up so I could give the dude my ignition key.
Today Progressive called to say I'll have to pay $500 for $3,832.96 of damage. Car should be ready June 6, the same day my son is supposed to have an operation for a herniated disk. So D-Day may prove to be problematic.
The City of Hueytown has been fixing a lot of potholes along the stretch where I wrecked.
My son in law said he saw an orange cone at that pothole from hell when he drove back home.
I told him I would have appreciated that cone there earlier.
I'm about to drive my rented car to take a good look at that impact site. It's beside a deli I like anyways.
Wishing you a pleasant Memorial Day weekend. Try to do something nice for yourself.
I'll be bringing her something in a couple of hours.
Then I brought a plate and a cake home to my son.
Di-VER-si-teeeee..
He said that like some sort of a religious word. That was more important to him than the danger that comes with large groups of Muslims.
My personal evolved from the past belief system is about loving everyone. I find that very hard to do when libs want to enslave me and so-called "radicalized" Muslims want to do far worse.
I'm suddenly remembering a western in which John Wayne "turns the other cheek." But when he's struck a second time, he slugs the dude to the ground.
I also live in the Birmingham area.
Thinking the Evil Hag would be president was another.
But maybe I'm wrong, so I'd certainly wait for them to strike first. (Although at some point we've got to stop believing that terrorists really are acting independently, even when countries like Saudi Arabia go on funding the schools that radicalize them, and start treating their attacks as acts of war by their sponsors.)
When people start talking about their beliefs in such a manner, just walk away or run like hell.
In fact, also, many people whom you would call "liberals" or "progressives" know full well the dangers of radical Islam, as well as the dangers of fundamentalist Christianity or orthodox Judaism ... or for that matter Buddhism... I recommend highly Christopher Hitchens's monograph, god is not Great. Hitchens even identified Marxism as a religion. (My review here: http://necessaryfacts.blogspot.com/20... )
As insightful as Christopher Hitchens was, Ayn Rand was more cogent. She explained clearly why the mystics and altruists are a threat to civilization, and why many liberals and conservatives do not understand the nature of that threat.
(And the graphic is a total fake with both images posed for the production.)
Maybe when my car gets fixed in Hoover where both are.
Islamophobic without shame.
So I should instead be Islamowary?
Their deranged for extreme concept of diversity is more important to them than little kids being blown up.
That's why it is always better to talk about principles. Discuss the principles behind any given ideology and you not only get to the heart of the matter, but then have a true measuring stick for whether against which you can measure someone's actions.
Allosaurus is Latin for different lizard; nevertheless, I'm not the only one like me here in The Gulch.
Have no fear no preaching from here.
Religious fanatics repel me.
I've met some.
