The media and their parents tell them how smart they are for only considering the superficial ramifications of a policy.

Example: "all poor people should have food!" and "all children deserve to be educated!"

Their politicians campaign on stupid vapid substanceless statements that they know will resound with the mental midgets who refuse to look any farther than the platitude.

For the same reason that atheists know they are smarter than theists. Because they spend much of their lives using data, logic and critical thinking to form opinions and come to conclusions, as opposed to just adopted them from talking heads on T.V. or pulling them straight out of their ass.

This is something I'd like to know the answer to as well.

Why is it that America is roughly half liberal and half republican, but it seems like 90% of the media pander to liberal sensibilities and being republican is sort of a dirty thing. Fox News is only watched by morons etc.

I guess you're asking why Trump assaulting women is worse than Clinton's emails.

Probably because Clinton's crime is one that goes against the laws of the country.

Trumps crime not only breaks the law of the land but is also one that directly violates another person. It speaks volumes more about a persons character if they can directly victimise another human being purely for their own satisfaction.

The "high road" you refer to isn't high in everyone's opinion. Every right you grant one crowd strips a right from an adjacent crowd.

Here is an example:

I can burn an american flag in public and it is freedoms of speech. Yet if I burn a Mexican flag in public, suddenly it is a hate crime.

Welcome to the only country in the world where disrespecting your own country in any and every way is protected, but disrespecting someone else's home is a crime. If I burned a German flag in Germany, that would be treason.

This is why I have to laugh every time I see riots of illegal immigrants chanting "not my president" while marching with anti-trump signs. No, he isn't your president. And if you all hate the way this country is going, feel free to leave. How dare people disrespect the country that goes them the life they know. And moreover, how dare you illegals come here and process to mock our government. If you are all so proud of your heritage, shut the fuck up and go back to where you came from.

You want to be american, come here legally and THEN voice your opinion. THAT is your right, and it is earned as you obtain citizenship. Makes me sick that people can sneak over here and our laws grant them a single thing.

Doesn't involve needing to talk to other people. That's the whole point of those three things. Only fucking idiots get their opinions from other people.

How is this even remotely true? Very liberal people only give a shit about how "Politically correct" they look to others, and they dont listen to outsider opinions. The most logical people are probably middle of the road people, the ones who agree with policies from both sides. If you honestly deny all conservative values and deem them as racist, or bigoted then you are a fucking idiot. Some of the most retarded people I have ever met have been so far up their own ass in lefist bullshit that they legitimately have no idea how to use logic and instead start acting like apes and start throwing insults like "racist" around.

You are misinformed as to the cause of such change, but you won't believe that because you're a moron. As a great Zen master once said, "you must empty your cup before it can be filled."

Being averse to religion is also completely reasonable, but if you assume that what you see around you is all that exists, you are still a moron. There is abundant evidence for reincarnation, let alone "life after death".

"Care for the environment" is common fucking sense, and should be highly prioritized by all humans.

OK, lets look at some of the non superficial ramifications of policy. On the surface trickle down economics makes sense until you dig in to the guts of it . Here is what really happens. The theory is that if you cut taxes on the wealthy, they will have more money to spend on investing in their company and the workers will benefit. Unfortunately that is not what happens. When taxes are low, owners take the money out and put it in their pocket. When taxes are high, owners increase investment in capital because, and this is important to understand, investment in research and capital is deductible 100% and reduces their tax bill. That is why states like Kansas, who have reduced taxes, thinking it might raise production, and ultimately bring in more taxes are now almost bankrupt. States like California, which have raised taxes on the wealthy, are now financially doing very well and their economically doing very well. Still, the Republicans are still pushing trickle down and ignoring the data. There is a reason why higher taxes bring economic growth. You watch though, when we have a Trump recession, they will still try to blame it on the democrats. Look at history. HEisenhower, high taxes, booming economy. Reagan, low taxes (at least till he raised them) high infation. Clinton, higher taxes, booming economy. Bush, low taxes and a war fought on borrowed money, the economy tanks to close to depression era levels. Obama, higher taxes and we crawled out of the Bush fiasco. What do you think is going to happen under Trump when he basically the same as Bush did?

No one will take you seriously when you call the policy "tickle down economics." It's a partisan and incorrect description. It's like calling liberalism "non-producers parasitizing off the system-ism." Oh, wait, bad example. That's actually spot-on.

Anyway, the actual name for the policy is "supply-side economics" and it is a policy with empirically established success. The idea is that making investment and reward non-punitive, more people will invest and take risks, which in turn spurs enterprise and productivity, which in turn, increases demand for labor, which in turn raises wages and the standard of living for all. In other words, a great tide floats all boats.

But, hey, you can always put forward a case of successful socialism. Don't say "Scandinavia" because they are not socialist, but have, in fact, more economic freedom than America.

Venezuela, Cuba, Maoist China, East Germany, North Korea... where has socialism ever worked?

>they have education in such important fields as art history and lesbian dance.

This old bullshit is old. Cherry pick a few eccentric things, as if they represent University in general. Really just trying to discredit higher education, how f-d up is that? Ya, that will make America great again, get rid of the Universities. If people who made a point to think about history and politics don't agree with you, you'd think that would be a moment for self-reflection.

>implying all liberal people say the same shit, or that a high IQ means success

You do realise that loads of people with decent/good IQs just end up becoming deadbeats because their ego and talent means they struggle to learn the value of hard work and responsibility. Look at how many successful people are conservative and look at how many "liberals" are just a drain on public resources and shit stirrers.

IQ doesn't correlate with success or even power. It just correlates with the ability to get correct answers on particular types of tests.

I've spent 8 years in liberal bastions: (3 in law school and 5 in undergrad studying political science, psychology, philosophy, and sociology) I've had friends on both sides of the spectrum who were both rich and poor.

>why do liberals think they're better than everybody?

There are two parts to this: elitism and false superiority.

Elitism doesn't come from liberalism, it comes from money. There are elitist shit-heads on both sides of the isle, but the lefties are far more open about while the righties are secretive about it.

Liberal elites believe in noblesse oblige, where they feel it is their duty as wealthy people to help out those less fortunate. Since they're often rich spoiled lazy brats they can't really relate to those lower on the totem, and so they usually come off as insufferable pretentious assholes who have to shout everything out on a microphone for the "less-educated".

The conservative elites don't feel a sense of noblesse oblige so much as they want to "get the peasantry under control for their own good." Usually, they're libertarians who think paying lip service to conservative christian values is a means to an ends to get a neoclassical economic model in place that preserves the current economic order. RINOs.

>What makes them think they have it all figured out more than anybody else does?

I've met conservatives who I could say the same thing about. This is more to do with partisanship and social bubbles than anything. Things that might be baked into you from an early age and simply accept as a truth aren't shared by the other side and neither side may have ever been exposed to a different side (ex: believing that people rely on wellfare because people are fundamentally lazy vs believing that people rely on wellfare because they don't have opportunities/historical oppression). When you disagree with someone on something fundamental, the first inclination is to say they're stupid.

>>711727915
Yeah they do. Step 1. Take all the money they can grab. Step 2. Give it to themselves and the scrubs of society all while telling you how you can be a better person.

Unfortunately, my fellow liberals' actions are the result of a willful ignorance of reality when it conflicts with their preconcieved notions and dangerously inflated egos. The term liberal has a bad connotation these days because whiny faggots who want their way all the time disguise their selfishness as acting for a greater cause.
>>
>>711718701
It's all about money and power. The wealthiest and most powerful corporations are all pushing liberal ideas into the media, education, and the government. I bet they don't even believe the liberal crap they force into our lives, but the public eats it right up. So they maintain a powerful grip over the public, and in the end they control where the money goes.

Basically, it's only going to get worse until people wake up and stop letting themselves be controlled.
>>
>>711726812
Unfortunately, saying "Supply side economics" is a policy with empirically established success" is not true in the US with our tax system. Name one state that has employed it successfully. Kansas?, Oklahoma?, Wyoming? All the states that have tried it have failed They all tend to be states that can't survive financially without using more federal tax dollars than they take in. Supply side economics only success is increasing the income gap between the rich and poor. I am a capitalist, but I understand that higher taxes on the wealthy have other benefits other than just being able to our bills.
>>
>>711716873
This is especially prevalent in USA with the 2 party system, but why do people constantly feel the need to categorize and generalize people and their opinions?

And why does some political opinions just come delivered in a package?

For example, if you are conservative you are likely to also be a man made climate change denier. Like why?
Why do people need to jump on a bandwagon and cirklejerk all the time?
>>
>>711728389
Controlled by this guy. Who's interest in regulation of speculation markets is to make sure american speculators are dragged down by regulations he doesn't have to follow thereby eliminating his competition. You can't watch this and support the democratic party. The democrats have turned into the same thing the republicans were in the 50's. Just replace the word communist with racist.

That's easy. Because we're smarter. We're not smarter because we're liberals, we're liberals because we're smarter. We understand math and science, and we base our opinions on facts, not hysterical bullshit. We know the unemployment rate has gone down, we know the world isn't flat, we know that Obama doesn't want to kill our grandparents, we know FDR was elected four times, we know that public education and roads are socialism, and we know Trump can't build a wall where it's mechanically impossible to build on regardless of who pays for it.
We're smart, and you guys are fucking idiots. It's simple.

Here's an observation/thought.
Ideally, you want low barriers to entry/exit and a lot of competitors in a totally free market system, right?
As far as I'm aware, most of the business in america are all owned by a super small number of megacorps that are all in bed together.
I really do think that a lot of the problems in american society stem from a massive power imbalance between worker and employer.

It's a cheap confidence trick.

Sure you do, sure you do.

But note: the difference isn't really about intelligence. Smart people can be vile sociopaths. They can be criminals.
