calfoxwc Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 the old saying, for every action there is a reaction - the hypocrisy of the left is alienting smart, well-intentioned, healthy folks to look at it all with conservative eyes. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/2017/02/17/student-lefts-culture-intolereance-creating-new-generation-ofconservatives/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 I see a lot of claims in that article without any sourced data to back it up. While the students bitching about speeches they don't like are left politically, it's a stretch to call any student that's pro free speech a conservative.

calfoxwc Posted February 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 but life isn't all sourced data. History teaches a lot of lessons to those that understand that. Maybe it's like me getting a new bionic knee, which is fantastic.... I know the awesomeness every day of having a good knee. Like everything, we people get so used to having good knees, necks, whatever, we take it for granted, we get accustomed to something and don't think about it. But lose it, like your freedom in a country in Europe taken over by communists/nazis... and you cherish it. It dramatically changes your perspective. Get a toothache, and you realize that you never think about your teeth except to brush em after a meal. You appreciate not being in pain. So, it seems perfectly valid that when people see movements be destructive, hypocritical, counterproductive or offensive, ... the people that see it, experience a new perspective - we adapt, we react, we adjust. It's the human condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 So I skimmed over that response. I'm pretty sure it offered nothing constructive, as I started zoning out when you were talking about your knee. I'd say my critiques from my first post still stand.
