It's like how our war is called the "New Global Conflict." A simple thesaurus turns that into "New World War" or if you prefer "World War Three." Our major candidates of both parties have been openly campaigning for WWIII, and the sheeple voted for it.

Open the other eye. You cannot see the insults which insult the right because you are not on the right. You tend to remark upon the insults which affect all humanity "asshole" etc. and those which effect the left "libtard" or those which effect a non partisan group "raghead" but you don't see, and often have used yourself things which offend the right.

If someone were to say "Racist wingnut teabaggers like Rand Paul and Ron Paul" Will hit offensive on several levels.

Someone said on one of those pundit shows, I don't remember, "The tea party sure has attracted the birthers and truthers"

Birthers and truthers belong in a pairing? That's offensive. If I don't accept that Osama bin Laden flew planes into the WTC just because Bush says so than I'm the same as someone who believes some head case from Moldova who claims Obama is a Kenyan because she failed to derail McCain on the grounds that he was a Panamanian?


See, all sorts of things can be offensive, but if you're not in the target range, you may not even see them.

"Neocon teabaggers" is another double attack: It's an offensive flawed grouping of two opposed camp, and it calls the latter suckers of balls.

The "pairing" of "Birthers and Truthers" is in your mind only, I think. You HEARD it as a "pairing". If I were to say that Obama won in '08 because of the votes of Democrats and independents, I didn't just say that independents are all Democrats, did I? The guy listed two groups as having ties to the tea parties, not ties to each other; and it certainly seems to be a valid statement that both of those groups have largely gravitated towards that movement.

You make lots of hay about "neo-libs" and the like, and either you have both eyes closed, or you're deliberately trying to offend, right? I mean, that IS the claim you're making towards others here.

Also, I really think you're over-thinking your whole "Nazi" thing. Occam's razor says all else being equal, the simpler explanation is usually the correct one. Did you ever ask yourself how the word "National" is pronounced in German? It's not the way we say it - "Nah-shun-nel", but more like "Not-see-ah-nahl-en". So take the first two syllables - "Not-see", and you get to "Nazi" pretty quickly.

I gotta say, I think the "teabagger" thing is kinda offensive. I know they called themselves that for a brief time, but they don't anymore, and "teabagging" is kinda gross.

It's like calling black people niggers and justifying it because black people have called themselves niggers on occasion. Don't like being called a nigger? Maybe they should be less of a nigger. While we're at it we can criticize their lifestyles and priorities using statistics to paint them with stereotypes.

You might say people can't choose their race and that makes things different, but the fact remains that tea partiers (like afircan americans in the example) are a large group of people being targeted based off of 1 thing.

You miss a key point: Black people didn't coin the word "nigger" to describe themselves. That word was thrust upon them by white slave traders who viewed them as nothing more than animals to be worked to death and then discarded.

I haven’t noticed the word “neolib” used, but “Most people today when you say neolib would apply the term to the folks who started the IMF, World Bank and WTO. I'm pretty sure that they're responsible for the destruction of the planet, oppression of the third world, etc.” is your opinion
