    • the American left is just as retarded. weren't the democrats responsible for Jim Crow laws?_niko
    • @_niko, this is about the "right," regardless of party or centurymonospaced
    • aka, the democrats back then were the conservative right, so absolutely no relation to today, and shouldn't be used as onemonospaced
    • ah gotcha._niko
    • Totally forgot Muslims.ArmandoEstrada
    • didn't the right care about 9/11?Gnash
    • ha ha well anyone with any history knowledge can see this for hyperbole. Going back to indians it wasn't even right vs left debate considering neither existed
      ********
    • perhaps images like this do more harm for the "left" they represent. Or perhaps that is the plan of the russian trolls! Over the top nonsense to try and get
      ********
    • emo reaction and strengthen divides based on nonsense... or just random ignorance and flag flying to attract like minds.
      ********
    • Both left and right existed before this country was founded.monospaced
    • ironically, the left were the christiansGnash
    • Protestants maybe? Were Catholics the right? I know it's not as simple as that, but sure :)monospaced
    • those are all christiansGnash
    • well, yeah, but at the time of the country's founding, the was a massive divide between catholics and protestants ... enouhg to form a new country :)monospaced
    • If, for you, the "left" was all christians, who do you place as the "right" back then?monospaced
    • the fucking frenchGnash
    • Hahaha. Cmon. I figured left and right were always parts of the same nation or group by definition.monospaced
    • hell liberalism doesn't mean what it meant in the 30s and definition has been quite twisted. as far as church goes they have more in sync
      ********
    • with todays democratic party. They were all about the collectivism and pushing same issues, they only disagree on who is leading. if democrats embraced the
      ********
    • church for power we'd be fucked. thank god idiots on both sides of the fence
      ********
    • but its funny to trace definitions of parties and look at policy over time. you tend to see this pole reversal effect
      ********
    • "if democrats embraced the church for power we'd be fucked." Please elaborate.monospaced
    • the far left already behaves like a religionGnash
    • you could say that about any extreme group, easilymonospaced
    • the left are particularly adept at using the mechanisms of denunciation and punishment used by religious inquisitors for heresies against The doctrineGnash
    • I feel like you've gone completely off topic with this :)monospaced
    • I can barely remember my what I had for breakfast, maintaining a focused train of thought is near impossibleGnash
    • democratic policy tries to promise everything a religion does as far as security as long as you follow along. the only difference is you follow actual people
      ********
    • vs the priests and prophets devining knowledge. And instead of after life, more directed to this life. Same obvious tactics
      ********
    • Ever look at a faithful church goer and wonder how they got fooled they seem like a normal person. Than go home and cheer on something like GND
      ********
    • those people are actually quite similar. they're just culturally triggered to respond different to sets of stimuli. if you could combine them it would be strong
      ********
    • but for topic. image that means nothing. your russian meme shit. an idea of american right only exists right now, not the past because no such party
      ********
    • existed under the name. And just terrible commentary since it has OMG russians... jsut a trademark example of social sharing
      ********
    • that people say had a russian influence.
      ********
    • maybe you will notice the trends and see what info is fodder, entertainment, or substance better.
      ********
    • "if democrats embraced the church for power we'd be fucked." Please elaborate.monospaced
    • I just did. Could you elaborate on what you couldn't follow? Any clue on what confuses you?
      ********
    • Hopefully that ? doesn't stump you... if it does save time and don't go forward.
      ********
    • you're comparing the democratic party with religion (terribly), but you did not even start to touch on the idea of democrats embracing the church.monospaced
    • Only one party "embraces the church" and that's the republican party. And yes, it's certainly "fucked" a lot of Americans in doing so. Dems are fighting that.monospaced
    • Church has no place in government. One party seems to be confused about this and continues to push for its inclusion. Democrats aren't doing that.monospaced
    • So once again, what do you mean by "if democrats embraced the church for power" ? The church has no power.monospaced
    • If you intend to just repeat your schtick about politics resembling the moronic belief structure of religion, then save time and don't go forward. Derp.monospaced
    • i said "if" they did. the only difference between christian/catholiscm and democrats p;atform is who they beleive to be the omnipotent ruler
      ********
    • a public servant or all powerful being. im just repeating myself now.
      ********
    • maybe you are unfamilair with collectivism morality? i dont understand what you are missing...
      ********
    • reps embrace church even though its more in line with democratic principles. Its always funny the hypocrisy in the parties embrace of things being really so
      ********
    • similar. dogmatic rule through faith or gov, is no different. principles rules on reason and logic are the difference
      ********
    • leftist claims of GND or FDR second bill of rights idea is dogmatic. its not based on reason. you can breakdown any and see it makes no sense
      ********
    • you see many dogmatic principles in church regarding social liberties. gays, birth control etc. its irrational to follow those as much as every one has a right
      ********
    • to say healthcare. jsut making shit up and declaring shit as rights or wrongs without any reasoning beside declaration. if the left could create an idea of a
      ********
    • false god or second coming, they could pull all the people from the right that are all about being ruled in a collective
      ********
    • theyre already their subjugated by faith the same as the faith left believers have in omnipotent democratically appointed rulers. just be the people like me
      ********
    • left. that just want to be free and live truthfully and honestly by principled reasoning
      ********
    • NONE of what you're rambling about even touches on a party embracing any religion. FFS, do you even read what you write?monospaced
    • haha it all does. wether you see it or not is dependent upon your cognition and understanding. do you notice that you dont cite anything i said?
      ********
    • and depict why or how it doesn't seem involved. in educated circles that would be protocol at least. in walmart declarations of yours more fitting
      ********
    • based on my cognition and understanding!? dude, I run circles around you there. You didn't even TOUCH on "embracing religion"monospaced
    • if you HAD, you would have specified a religion, and then talked about how they would embrace it for power. You didn't.monospaced
    • you dont need to specify a religion when you see its base formula. which is collectivism and i explained plenty about power of such.
      ********
    • if you run circles around me perhaps you really understand the differences between ideal socialism and christianity? and can explain them
      ********
    • because im pretty sure thats where u stumble on what im talking about.i talk an explain connection and u fingers in ear and say no
      ********
    • or just try to suggest i haven't said anything. so its up to you now. fundamental differences of christianity vs socialism
      ********
    • id say let it be homework, but you dont have a textbook. gonna have to dig deep into yourself
      ********
