and that government is nothing but evil, you're an idiot libertarian.

If you think that Paula Deen is just fine and that people of color should quit whining, you're an asshole racist.

On the other hand, calling people out on their bigotry is NOT bigotry.

Standing up to bullies is NOT bullying.

And speaking up about intolerance is NOT intolerance.

I don't know where that stupid ass illogic came from, but I'm furious about it.

1. Exaggerating to say that having any classified documents or information for national security purposes is a "violation of civil liberties."

2. Expressing distrust of government to the point of absurdity - if you distrust government that much, you would not want any social programs either - people give a lot more information about themselves to the government in concert with those than some metadata base will ever have.

3. Ranting about how terrible this country is - a liberal would not think it's so terrible. Rooting for other countries to harm it - only a Libertarian could think it's that terrible.
