    This is because - as we all know - the secret to great code and efficient programming is evenly distributed genitalia.

  3. No, I can say it because it is true.


    The entire human political struggle is the individual vs the state. In broad strokes, from Left to Right:

    Totalitarianism > Communism > Socialism > Progressvism > [center] > Conservativism > Objectivism > Libertarianism > anarchy

    That's "total government and no individuals" to "all individuals and no government".

    In Europe, the furthest Right they ever get is Progressive. So when the communists smear the socialists they call them "rightwing" because to them, THEY ARE rightwing.

    Fascism is a variant of socialism and communism. It MEANS SOMETHING. It's not just a "catch-all" or "shorthand" for whatever you hate, or find oppressive. Just because the communists in europe call the socialists rightwing, doesn't mean you can call the Tea Party or the Libertarians, socialists or fascists.

    The Nazis were ardent socialists (hence the term "National socialism"). They believed in free health care and guaranteed jobs. They confiscated inherited wealth and spent vast sums on public education. They purged the church from public policy, promoted a new form of pagan spirituality, and inserted the authority of the state into every nook and cranny of daily life. The Nazis declared war on smoking, supported abortion, euthanasia, and gun control. They loathed the free market, provided generous pensions for the elderly, and maintained a strict racial quota system in their universities-where campus speech codes were all the rage. The Nazis led the world in organic farming and alternative medicine. Hitler was a strict vegetarian, and Himmler was an animal rights activist. You equate the fascists with "jack-booted thugs", forgetting what it was that the thugs were there to enforce in the first place: national socialism.

    And then, there's this:

    "We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions." --Adolf Hitler, Quoted in John Toland, "Adolf Hitler", p224.

    Yeah, that sounds totally like the American Right. *Totally*

Thank you for "giving me the chance" to repost the link to my research that you never bothered to look for, and was sitting right there, out in the open for you to find, simply by looking at my original post.

    Besides...communists being associated with unions is hardly a surprise at all, on any level; they are fundamentally communist organizations to begin with.

    Actually...Brazille has been claiming that the emails were doctored. Such accusations are only going to gather steam as they slowly realize it's the only defense they have.

    But someone has already examined the DKIM hashes on many of the key emails and verified their authenticity and integrity:

    So, they're real. And the contents of them would've destroyed any other candidate...which is why the near-uniform blackout amongst the mainstream news media over them.

  7. None of those are virtue signaling on the Right. But many of them are, on the Left. The Left is different because lefties are always radiating and advertising their values, in order to enforce social conformity and propagate the groupthink.

    he's not xenophobic; he just doesn't believe in open borders.
    he's not islamophobic; he just thinks female genital mutilation and 90 women raped in public on new years in Cologne are bad things.

    YOU are the one who frames his positions in that way, precisely so you don't have to debate the issues. Why bother debating the merits of open borders, if you're just encouraging a "xenophobe". See how that works?

  9. if I was accusing someone of virtue signaling to impress some rightwingers, or to gaslight someone...then, yes, it would be a "tactic" and could be called virtue signaling in it's own right. But sometimes a cigar is just a cigar and lefties are always virtue signaling, and pointing it out is not necessarily a "tactic".

  10. No, that's only what you guys tell yourselves. You also say other cute things like, "reality has a liberal bias". You need to read the wikileaks emails from the first batch and see how they really talk about these groups when they think no one can hear. They are just a racist, bigoted, and homophobic as you believe any republican to be. Watch Hillary's America - you haven't yet figured out that the Democrats are fabricating all this "tolerance" merely to appeal to you. They *pretend* to be tolerant and it attracts other people who *pretend* to be tolerant, and then allows all of you to *pretend* that the other side is full of evil intolerant people. Its all virtue signaling, and it's what you guys do best. The fact that so many minorities are voting that way only proves how effective it is, not how truthful.

    Iraq was fine until Obama abandoned them. There was no refugee flood. Iran wasn't around, ISIS really was a jayvee team, and Baghdad was IED-free. But after Obama and Hillary's arab spring rolled through the region - we destabilized over ELEVEN governments. THAT is instability.

    No one is saying we have to abandon our humanity. But we also don't have to airlift them to the other side of the planet, make them citizens of a country they never wanted to be a part of, as quickly as possible, and in the largest numbers possible, with as little security as possible.

    Setting up a safe zone in their own country would be safer, easier, cheaper, faster, simpler...there literally is no logical reason to expose ourselves to this risk, just so you can feel smug about your virtue signaling to the rest of the world.

    ...and aside from all that, maybe Obama and Hillary shouldn't be bombing them in the first place, right? We now know that Libya was destroyed to protect her eurotrash friends' oil portfolios...why do you assume that Syria is any more virtuous? It's nice you have to reach back FIFTEEN years and pretend Bush is the cause...but you have to ignore eight years of Obama Foreign Policy Failure [tm] to get there.

  12. Nope, it's true. It's why the Left thinks all gays, women, blacks, hispanics, etc should "by default", vote Democrat. Look at all the harassment Milo gets. Look at all the shit Caitlyn Jenner got for being republican. You cannot find me ONE instance of a person in any of those "precious groups" that does not vote Democrat, and is still respected socially. And every member of those groups that is publicly republican is socially shamed and ostracized. I just gave you two examples of this....find me one that is not called an uncle tom kind of character by the Left. If the Left doesn't think politics descends form biology, then you ahve to show me at least one example where that rule is violated. So show me one person who is still accepted by the left as a part of a minority group, even thought they are rightwing.

  13. yeah, it was a nutjob with a gun who hated gays because he went to Afghanistan and got a good 'ol dose of the high octane Islam. Then he goes and kills all those gays while pledging allegiance to the ISLAMIC state. No Islam, no shooting. Add islam, get a shooting.

  14. oh please. I asserted that Stern was an international communist, and produced research proving such. You haven't offered one fact throughout any of this.You just show up and wag your finger and lecture me about my "behavior", and pretend that your delicate sensibilities have been violated somehow by my "tone".

    Try and add the FACT that temp data is being manipulated and corrupted to a conversation on global warming; see how that goes. http://realclimatescience.com/... Try to contradict a Black Lives Matter activist by giving proof that there is no such thing as "Driving while black" (at least in New Jersey) http://www.city-journal.org/ht... and see how that goes. How in the world would you know if Slashdot was leftwing, if you've never offer a rightwing opinion?

    For virtually every article on Slashdot where there is a leftwing opinion, try adding a rightwing one. The results will surprise you. That's how lefties roll; they "moderate away" anything they don't want to hear. That's how they oppress.

    Assange implicated him as the leaker, not the Russians. And there are all kinds of shady things about his death. But don't worry, the DNC fact checkers will debunk it for you, so you can keep blaming the Russians. Hillary has to get elected, after all.

  20. And THAT is exactly the reason why. You lefties simply have no tolerance for people who are being oppressed by you. The entire look-down-the-nose attitude of your post is very revealing. And all of that vitriol is aimed at me, simply because I know who Stern and SEIU is in the political context, and you do not. Despite the fact that I see opinions I disagree with, I don't immediately harass the posters or moderate them at all. I guess it's just you approach people in a way that shows that you don't give a shit what they think, and you post and moderate because you feel the need to exercise your authority over everyone - it's what lefties do, sadly.

I reliably lose points for expressing rightwing opinions of any kind,almost every poll has shown Hillary with a comfortable lead, and articles such as this that espouse leftwing dogma are regularly in the news feeds here. The fact that the poster actually chose to post such a blatantly political post here, and that it was accepted by the staff should be all the proof you need. Stern himself is an international communist http://www.discoverthenetworks... and the SEIU can only be charitably called a leftwing brownshirt factory.

    There simply is no proof that the Russians are hacking the DNC; most of the "evidence" comes from Fireye - which is a known CIA outfit. And hey, we've even got a dead DNC staffer, killed under weird circumstances, screaming for investigation. But the DNC needs a distraction. It's very important that no one actually *read* anything that was released, just be outraged about "the source". So now the very same country that Hillary gave our uranium and shiny new reset button to...and that Obama protected from Romney during the 2012 debates...is now our enemy #1!!! Hillarious!

    Now we're going to "respond"? So, red lines crossed, thousands killed, entire countries "annexed"....nothing. But - HOW DARE YOU LEAK THE DNC EMAILS!!! NOW we get a response. Threats to the country? Nah. Threats to their power? They go nuclear - and possibly literally.

  25. ahhh but don't you see the problem? You don't actually consult Milo himself. He is quite eloquent as to why he believes what he believes and he easily refutes your pathetic caricature of the Right as "oppressive". But you never bothered to listen to *him*, did you? All the "logic" you worship, isn't "logic" at all...it's your ideological bias that's showing. No one's supporting bigotry against one's self...you just have an inadequate understanding of the situation. Maybe you should listen more - you'll find there's all kinds of things in the world that don't conform to your political narrative.
