The Totalitarian Leftist Tactics against the Right

Using derogatory terms is not the only form of racially insensitive or bigoted speech. One can use all the "politically correct" terms and still say things that are racist and bigoted. No you don't, you give radical conspiracy theory nonsense. If your arguments were reasoned and rational, I (we) would be more likely to be convinced. Your accusation that we are all brainwashed Marxists is just a shallow excuse to avoid having to make real, rational and reasoned analysis. All you have to do is make an assertion and if we disagree, it is because of our evil leftist Marxist brainwashing. So when Native Americans suggest that the term 'Indian' is offensive to them because it refers back to a time when they were thought of as savages that needed to be either tamed or destroyed and driven out of their land in the face of white "progress" and they wish to no longer be referred to as 'Indians' any more, your response IS "Screw you! I don't mean anything racist by it so just get over it." Ok, now this is just plain dumb. We have physical evidence that these groups of people inhabited this continent for over 5,000 years, which means they must have arrived very shortly after the flood. Or are you thinking there may have been people living here more than 10,000 or 20,000 years ago that deserves the title "Native American."It is a fact that there were native peoples living here when the Europeans arrived here and that our ancestors forced the native peoples out of their land and into Reservations. We robbed them of their way of life and their dignity and now you call that idea Marxist propaganda? I'm not sure what world you live in, but this does not appear to be the case. People are pretty insensitive to the feelings of people who are different than they are. The point is to inform and teach people what is insensitive and how other people, who feel marginalized, perceive the way you speak about them. Do patriots and pilgrims feel marginalized by these terms? This is hardly the same thing, Faith. So... no, you are not capable of describing what you think political correctness is without using political accusations.HBD

It may be worse than that. Unable or unwilling to accept that the native peoples were able to build the more impressive remains, some people attributed those to a "lost" (and of course, White) race. While the racist history of the idea isn't empahasised it still shows up in fringe "history" and it would not at all surprise me if Faith picked it up from there, unaware.Needless to say, relying on ideas that have no basis other than racism to deny that the pre-European inhabitants deserve to be called "Native" is hardly good, even when it is done unwittingly.

I don't want you dead. I want you as a living example of everything that's wrong.

News doesn't come from political extremes. That's propaganda.

You continue to say this. Yet the record shows that you are the one poster who has wished ill on the other posters here. Your statement is pure projection.

The origin of the term is totally irrelevant. Just as anyone can use gun powder, anyone can use political correctness against their opponents. This post of yours reeks of you slinging around terms like Maoist and communist simply as attacks on folks and not on the substance of their complaints about you.

I'll know better next time when you say you're just asking serious questions. So you love PC, I don't see it your way but clearly that's not OK, it turns out I'm a racist and a bigot anyway -- if you don't get to call me that for one reason you get to for another. I have to toe your PC line as I should have figured I'd have to. Just the usual mentally deranged Leftist hate speech.

I guess I should have realized there's no reasoning with a Leftist.

Why am I always so astonished at the stupidity of the Left?

It's because you're not a Christian and don't accept do as you would be done by as the only way to lead a good life.

I don't know. Why are you astonished at your lunatic fantasy ?Seriously Faith if all you can do is present the dubious - and often false - claims made by right-wing extremists as facts - backed up with insults - you are not engaged on reasoning, nor is it in the least stupid to disagree with you.So stop throwing your nasty little tantrum and start acting like an adult.

Not from your perspective. If your platform revolves around fantasies and is completely bereft of any data or critical analysis, don't be surprised when 'Leftists' call you on it. You believe in fairy tales. My guess is you are astonished by things you do not understand and then label them 'stupid' because of your lack of fundamental understanding. Reminds me of how young children behave actually.
'You're stupid!' was a common insult evoked by young children in elementary school. Along with the 'I know you are but what am I' tactic. I am surprised you actually haven't used that one yet. Although I don't read all your posts, so maybe I missed it.

Those damn facts and reality do keep getting in your way, don't they?

How many of you are on Soros' payroll I wonder?
