Went off on a Neocon on Facebook Today.

Some 20 something posting a Hitler/OWS comparison graphic said food stamps were a kind of "slavery" because they "taught people dependence instead of giving them intiative." I responded that if he thought that feeding children and expectant mothers was equal to slavery, he should get a vasectomy immediately.

I should have told him to apologize to his mother, the ungrateful little prick.

1. Youth is foolishness

There is no shortage of examples of this.

5. The most liberal, open-minded people I know in this town are young.

Including myself (23).

6. I don't see too many young Tea Partiers...

so that is not true, really.

8. I think that his foolishness comes from not judging what he has not experienced.

That can happen at any age.

2. People pretending fascism is a left wing thing are idiots. Try

showing them some of what people that call themselves Nazi's in this country believe. There is literally nohting you can find that doesn't show them as right-wing nut jobs.

3. Well done!

Slavery my golden ass!

He is an Idiot.

:nuke:

4. He also said "You can find many historians who believe that FDR

prolonged the Great Depression."

Where are they getting this shit?

10. I interact with some "Libertarian" types. I hear that one a lot.

IMO their beliefs (some religious, some not) are beyond conscious reason.

Today, one of them told me that evolution was not a science, because it was not experimental. I raised an eyebrow, and he said, "You can't put an animal in a beaker!"

After a pause, I said, "You can't? -- ?"

After a longer pause he said, "Well, you got me there." I was surprised, as this is very rare with "true believers."

This fellow has a biology degree -- but I think it's from a Bible college. LOL.

7. I wouldn't call a neo-con a prick. Because

their women think that is the best part of the neo-con.

9. I guess Jesus was trying to enslave people, then,

when he fed the poor and encouraged his followers to help the needy.

It amazes me that people buy into this inside-out, twisted logic.
