In reply to the discussion: Taking a radical right-wing position on the part of an outgroup is not "liberalism." [View all]True Blue Door
(2,969 posts)46. I took the nothing that you're saying and ran with it.
I don't want to engage people who only "discover" ethical principles when they can use them as a mask
And there it is again, trying to rewrite the cosmos to fit in your little imaginary melodrama. My ethics haven't changed, and there is no basis for your attacks on me other than your reasons for all this crap: You don't want to talk about the subject logically raised by the event. Nor apparently are you willing to simply avoid conversations about it, because that would just make too much sense and be too productive.
Instead you have to dive-bomb this discussion with repeated, vehement claims of how much you think there's nothing to talk about, nothing to see here folks.

So by all means, keep thumping about the great glories of "western civilization" and the existential threat posed to it by two dipshits who got themselves killed at what was basically a convention of people whom you have 'liked" on Facebook. I'll just keep rolling my eyes nad having a laugh at your inability to process things that don't follow your script.
None of that has any connection to what I've said, or to this subject, or to this planet. And you're actually bragging that your comments are a string of inchoate non sequiturs.
But thank you. You have proven to be a most informative case study, and a highly relevant demonstration for the topic.

Tolerance and sympathy for religious madmen is acceptable because... police brutality?

I would usually view attempted murder as a more serious offense than disagreeing with me.

A "yeahbut" is what happens when bigotry is confronted by inconvenient reality.

I do not think a calf wound is worthy of an existential "clash of civilizations" rant.

Thank you. It is also not "liberalism" to accept misogyny in certain other foreign cultures

The Christians who did that were WRONG and that doesn't excuse the people who do it now.
