[quote]We, sir, are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents, or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights," Dixon said.[/quote]
The American Left cares about inalienable rights, now?

Even though I disagree with both of you, watching you two go at it is amazing.

There's a magical hive mind of politics that makes everyone think the same?

I don't think it's a far stretch to say that American leftists aren't exactly champions of property rights.

Give me one example of republicans trying to limit freedom of speech.

But if you notice, I said first amendment. Which includes more than just freedom of speech.
-
Fair enough. When you say freedom of speech, freedom of press, religion, and congregation are implied.
-
Ive learned to assume nothing is implied because when I do assume it people wanna hold it over my head.
-
You mean like you just did?
-
Sure. I assume everyone is the lowest common denominator. Works out easier for me.

[quote]That works both ways.[/quote] Right-wing is too broad in that example, considering that it casts a net over the bottom-right, all the way from classical liberals to AnCaps. Contrarily, anybody sitting left of the center is an economic authoritarian or an AnCom Utopian.
-
That's a little broad. A few of my friends are left leaning but at the same time they think liberal fiscal policies don't work. But they're definitely not right leaning.

[quote]A few of my friends are left leaning but at the same time they think liberal fiscal policies don't work.[/quote] How does that work?

They're socially liberal but fiscally conservative. And they're definitely not libertarian, because they believe in state-ran Medicare and the such. They just believe that an increase in taxes and government involvement in the economy is bad. I'm not saying I agree, I'm just saying that people like them exist.

1st of all you're wrong. 2nd of all define conservative tax plan.

Edited by OnlyAlfredo: 11/22/2016 2:37:47 AMI guess I'm wrong. I'm wrong about the definition of fiscal. I'm wrong about what people I know believe. Conservative tax plans reduce taxes. You're very convincing.
-
When you say fiscally conservative, that implies budget [i]and[/i] tax code. One can not realistically expect to lower taxes and provide the same services, that would be asinine.

[spoiler]I already explained before, I do not believe these things. They do. Lecturing me about their beliefs is retarded. [/spoiler]

They're not fiscally conservative if that's what they believe. I'm not saying your wrong about what they believe, I'm saying you labeled it wrong.

They literally said they "don't think liberal fiscal policies work."
