The left is constantly crying out "I'm offended" as if it is some type of argument. At this juncture, conservatives could care less if liberals are offended. The internet is quite large. If your offended, I suggest crawling into your liberal cocoon so you are not offended by contrary views. The reason why liberals cry "I'm offended" so frequently is that they cannot or will not form legitimate arguments. In short, they are incompetent/dishonest.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 13:13, 8 May 2017 (EDT) | | ::::Two points: The left does practice forced labor.

| | :::::Pardon me for being offended that you paint me as supporting genocide and murder. Nobs, it's true that words have no inherent meaning - but this doesn't mean that they have no meaning at all. No inherent meaning means that the marks we put on paper don't have meaning in and of themselves. If they did, you and I would be able to read Japanese without problem. It's the configurations that we put those marks in and the things we're taught in life that give the marks meaning. It is also important to note that not all words mean the same things to the same people. In this sense, words have no meaning as well. For instance, you would say the verb 'revise' means 'to clean up and make better', like revisions to a paper. To me, the verb 'revise' means 'to study'. These are differences between American and British English. Revise has no meaning per se, but the culture we come from gives the words meaning. Make sense? Even the phrase 'per se' there probably has different meanings to you and I. | | :::::Pardon me for being offended that you paint me as supporting genocide and murder.

For example, I just discovered "humanitarian" to Barack Obama means "behead Christians" to me, or "responsibility to protect civilians" to Hillary Clinton means "arm and equip ISIS" to everybody else.

| | ::::::Regarding the murder/genocide part, liberals support abortion, which is a form of murder and genocide because the unborn babies truly are human beings (a scientific fact liberals deny and replace with pseudoscience). Abortion has murdered about 60 million people since 1973 in the U.S. alone. Regarding pedophilia, it's a good thing that many liberals don't support it yet. However, if we were speaking in the 1970s, most liberals would say they opposed homosexual behavior and even abortion. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 14:45, 8 May 2017 (EDT) | | ::::::Regarding the murder/genocide part, liberals support abortion, which is a form of murder and genocide because the unborn babies truly are human beings (a scientific fact liberals deny and replace with pseudoscience).
