Originally posted by Lanny Wait, so what's your argument here?
I'm making observations of the world as it is, not arguing.
And the words "liberal" and "conservative" are both misnomers. By insisting on using them, mixing vernacular with old dictionary definitions, you're confusing terms and making any sort of analysis impossible. At least neoliberal has a precise, agreed upon definition.
But then again I apparently think Paul Graham started AirBNB and shit like that, so whatever. -

Originally posted by Lanny You keep using that word "strawman" but I'm not sure you really get what it means.
…
you're the one who decided to start arguing lynching (which doesn't actually mean what it means for some reason?) is a wonderful thing.
What is a strawman if you asserting that I think lynching is wonderful isn't one?So if you accept this premise then it's natural that the parties which have the stated goal of bringing those fringes into the society as first class citizens find a strong voter base there.
The goal is not usually equality of opportunity, at least in a legal sense - usually they already have that.
For instance affirmative action, racial quotas, etc. explicitly set aside equality of opportunity in favour of equality of outcome (which is achieved via favouritism). Hate speech laws do not apply to normal people, only the fringes (at least outside of Africa). Normal people do not benefit from economic redistributionist policies - the fringes do. -

Originally posted by Lanny Like are you actually arguing there is no history in the US of excluding or exploiting the cultural fringes in material ways?
This is another strawman, the whole point of the argument the linked to writer is making is that of course the fringes are exploited, excluded and disenfranchised by the mainstream - in the US as well as everywhere else. That is what makes them useable as a power base.How am I the one taking this off topic?
Making this about "liberals". This isn't even about internal US politics, it's about US imperial policy. -
2018-10-28 at 8:29 PM UTC in Why the coalition of the fringes is promoted by the USLanny, part 1 is just a strawman, and part 2 - I genuinely don't care what the dictionary says, and no, you are not entitled to legal trial before you are killed, whatever the term "legal trial" even means. For instance you can kill enemy combatants, traitors (Andrew Jackson executed one of those on the Whitehouse lawn IIRC), those killed in mutual combat (duelists, again, AJ), those killed in self-defence, etc. But that's itself is going completely off reservation, and I don't really care to follow you off there.
I feel like you're just turning these straightforward observations into another winding 10,000 post thread that winds up elucidating nothing and enlightening nobody. Can we please get back to the topic at hand? -

Originally posted by DontTellEm If they didn't care then why would they be turned off by her trying to keep her idea that ppl here "probably" won't steal a secret? Lol smh
I don't get it.
Did you know that according to Paul Graham the person who started AirBNB had to pitch multiple times, and was only accepted because he was sought after and it was assumed once he got the terrible idea out of his system he might be able to work on other startups. -

Originally posted by vindicktive vinny all the great thinkers of that period were germans and translated version always seems to be long and winded.
Don't forget also that people used not to have television or internet, and books were quite rare and expensive compared to today, so people didn't mind long windedness as much as they do now. -
2018-10-28 at 5:54 PM UTC in Why the coalition of the fringes is promoted by the US"The Psychotic Left", by Kerry Bolton, is an entertaining read. It's basically a hit job about how all these lefties throughout history were sickly, neurotics, resentful, sexual deviants, etc. It's great because it breaks the sterility of mainstream history, it's really entertaining reading about what a sad freak the likes of Robespierre were. Dirt is always amusing to wade through.

2018-10-28 at 5:47 PM UTC in Why the coalition of the fringes is promoted by the US^Stoddard is such an awkward and long winded writer, goddam.
I like this bit from an essay by a William James:The world, in fact, is only beginning to see that the wealth of a nation consists more than in anything else in the number of superior men that it harbors. In the practical realm it has always recognized this, and known that no price is too high to pay for a great statesman or great captain of industry. But it is equally so in the religious and moral sphere, the poetic and artistic sphere, and in the philosophic and scientific sphere. Geniuses are ferments; and when they come together as they have done in certain lands at certain times, the whole population seems to share in the higher energy which they awaken.

2018-10-28 at 5:37 PM UTC in Hey techies, I need your helpOP, unfortunately ideas are worth nothing, execution is the most important thing. Probably no one will steal your idea without involving you in it, but most people will be turned off by you trying to keep your idea secret - people just don't care.
