    What you described is human nature and that, no matter how hard you try to spin it, has nothing to do with politics.

    There is no such thing as reverse discrimination or reverse racism. Its simply discrimination and racism regardless of side, color or creed.

    There you go. You believe that being intolerant is human nature. Obviously your a liberal. A conservative says your entitled to your own opinion, and a liberal says that you are entitled to my opinion. Yet, you claim that the liberal's view is human nature. I completely disagree with you, so I guess I'm just being intolerant.

    If I wasn't so sure you were actually serious, I'd think this was satire.

    See, this is why we should be using the term jabberwocky instead of liberal. It really does fit with the narratives much better.

    I usually refer to liberals as the loony left, but the moderators keep warning me that I am being insulting.

    There is no question that right wingers are FAR more intolerant and filled with hate than anyone else.
    Further, they claim to be Christian which is a religion which calls itself tolerant and worships the so called Prince of Peace.
    And they hate it when anyone challenges them with the TRUTH which clearly refutes their claims of being politically correct.

    That's a new one on me - I have heard Jews describe themselves as "reformodox" before.

    Liberals/Progressives are much more intolerant because they have to be....Because they always challenge the status quo. That's what they do. It doesn't really matter if the status quo is successful and not threatening....Liberals/Progressives MUST challenge it. That's what they do.

    A related matter: what about "justified" intolerance?

    I mean: I'm deeply intolerant to stupidity and I tend to discriminate stupids and idiots.

    There are periods in which these two categories [not exactly socially functional] tend to increase expanding their presence like a population of viruses. In those periods I become a bit discriminatory.

    The poll simply shows we have a number of knuckle draggers who identify as conservative/libertarian. Not all republicans are racist, but all racists are republicans.

    per definition conservatives are less tolerant then liberals, thats not a notion - this is true..abc semantics

    then again, those words seem to undergo a process of mutation in the US, so whatever...

    I said both sides about the same. The conservative biases (IMO) are much more apparent. No, Islam isn't a faith that is inherently violent. No, Obama is not part of the Muslim Brotherhood. Yes, he was born in the United States. The liberal biases are more subtle and pernicious. I was once told that I was inherently privileged because I'm white and male. I grew up in a trailer park with 5 siblings. Our father left us. I put myself through college. What little money I earned went to treating and bailing out my meth addicted mother. Currently I'm paying for much of my siblings housing and food. I wouldn't say I'm privileged. I'm privileged because I worked my ass off.

    Also in a way I think affirmative action is racist... fight racism with racism... seems legit.
