As a conservative observing liberals, there's alot about smear and generalizations on the left. And they lie most of the time in service of their ideals. They have to lie, because if they had an honest discussion, they lose. Going to smear tactics is the way they've kept power. But it hasn't worked so well lately.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say "observing liberals" is "clicking on conservative memes forwarded to you and listening to what conservative media is telling you."

The 'smear' crap is something that occurs on both ends of the liberal/conservative spectrum, although the conservatives have been doing it far better and for far longer, to the point where the very term liberal is an epithet uttered with almost as much disdain as a racial slur. I have friends and relatives that are conservative. I have some opinions that are conservative, too. I identify more as liberal and more of my opinions lean that way. I know, at the end of the day, my opinion on a position is my opinion, and I am fine with that. I am saddened by the masses who have their opinions on a position dictated to them by their conservative (or liberal) mouthpieces, and what you posted above seems, sadly, like a perfect example of that. Rather than cite any specific fact in a verifiable manner, you speak in broad generalities or cite one "former feminist on the internet" as if that is a fair representation of liberals, while at the same time complaining about the smear and generalizations on the left. Bravo, sir, you may have just qualified to be the case study for projection if we are allowed to have Psychology textbooks in this country any longer.
 
Its pretty comical hearing someone talk about how Liberals use smear tactics when you consider how Hillary Clinton was defeated
 
The incredible void of dignity to constantly skirt/sidestep/avoid is pure gold. I could never sell my soul like CONway has. I'd absolutely hate myself.

NEW YORK — Another Goldman Sachs executive, Dina Powell, is joining the Trump administration, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.

Powell has been advising President-elect Donald Trump's daughter, Ivanka, the person said, but it is unclear what position Powell will hold in the White House. The news was previously reported by Politico and the New York Times.

Powell's role is likely to revolve around the kind of work she has done as president of the Goldman Sachs Foundation, said the person with knowledge of the situation. Powell oversees some of Goldman's largest philanthropic initiatives, including the "10,000 Women” program, which helps female entrepreneurs around the world.

Before joining Goldman Sachs in 2007, Powell was one of the highest-ranking Arab Americans in the George W. Bush administration. She served as assistant secretary of state for educational and cultural affairs and deputy to Undersecretary of State Karen P. Hughes. She was also the youngest person ever to direct the White House's personnel office.​

Can someone give me an update?

I can't follow Trump anymore, it got too much so I've checked out.

Did he really fire the people who oversee the US's nuclear arsenal? And did the GOP really vote down lowering prescription drug costs?

Just wondering.

How do so many struggling American's support this type of stuff? He hasn't even been sworn in, and you can already see the disaster.

Why did people want this guy to run things? The only change I see is very negative to the average person who isn't a billionaire. Why do people vote for their own despair? Why is socialist ideas considered to be so bad? Those ideas are trying to help the working person who isn't a billionaire.

I will never understand people voting against their own interests.

The conservatives always go on about taxes and jobs then you pay more taxes (because they cut social programs) and then you lose your job because they have a financial interest in moving them out of country.

At the risk of sounding like Obiwan Kenobi but, "Something is out of place"

Americans are terrible students of history and have very short memories. There's so much crazy going on right now that I can't help but think of the foolishness that started before WW1. Sometimes I think people would remember The Kaiser and his irrationality before WW1 if it weren't for Adolph Hitler and the mark that he made on history.

I dare anyone to read up a little on The Kaiser Wilhelm II and say they don't see Donald Trump as his modern reincarnation. .
 
My "friend" argued "I'm not a racist but black people are worse than white people." He also a college professor. Racism had nothing to do with education. It has to do with how you are raised.

To be fair, Americans have terrible teachers. Or rather, the media doesn't usually bother to put things into a clear context in history.

This might be partly because teaching real history is time consuming a b d hard to keep a TV audience. Even the History Channel has a hard time showing history between episodes of Pickers, Pawn Stars, or Oakland Island.

America doesn't pay its teachers. That's why the students are uneducated. Plus the No Child Left Behind had dire consequences.
 
I motion that if trump is found to have colluded with Russia, basically is a traitor, that everybody that voted for trump has their right to vote in the presidential election stripped for the remainder of their lives.
