The more I try to have civil discussions with liberals, the more I realize that they are incapable of anything resembling civil. The few who do actually care about their fellow man are the ones who have been so brainwashed by other liberals telling them that conservatives are evil that they just accept it. Then, when you present them with actual facts, they move to their go-to responses.
“Why don’t you go watch more Fox News?” They say when they realize they have no chance of winning the argument based on fact. “I can’t argue with an idiot like you. You are wasting my time.”
Yes, that’s correct, telling a liberal to read facts is a waste of their time. Because liberals don’t know what to do with facts. They deal only in lies, except for the times they take the tiniest sliver of truth and make it work in their favor. For example, our wonderful president was faced with a question of why he would not lift the drilling moratorium in the Gulf to help ease the burden of gas prices. He got a stern look on his face and said that, in fact, domestic oil production was at an all time high under his watch. Well, yes and no. First of all, domestic oil production is the highest it’s been since 2003 but it takes years from the time a drill is put into the ground before it translates into fuel for our vehicles. So yes, oil production is at a relatively high level (still nowhere near what it should be since we have more untapped oil than any other nation) but the reason it is at that level is because Bush got it there. Of course, production is going to fall rapidly over the next few years because of Obama’s moratorium. That’s one way of swaying the truth to make it work for you.
I have seen just about every single one of the liberal responses for when they’ve lost a debate. There aren’t many of them, but they are relentless with them. For example, I was arguing with a few liberals on Twitter about Obamacare. I told them, and showed them, how countries with socialized health care often reject drugs that are most effective because of expense. There was a breast cancer drug that was proven to prolong life that was denied in the UK because it was too expensive. The response I got from the liberals was that I was just playing on people’s fears and that our system was way more messed up than the UK’s. Then, I pointed to a survey by the New England Journal of Medicine saying that 46% of physicians were going to quit, or be forced out of their fields if Obamacare went through in its entirety. The response I got to this was that the survey was biased. In fact, every survey or chart that I’ve ever shown to a liberal, no matter how many different polls show the same thing, has always been inaccurate for one reason or another.
The reason for this is simple. If you keep showing a liberal facts, proving to them that what you’re saying is correct, then they just fend off your facts by simply stating that it’s inaccurate. I mean, what can you say to that? Obviously they are all experts in every field and if they say something isn’t true then we should just take their word for it. They all understand that there is no good response to “nu-uh” and then they can tell their liberal friends that they showed you what’s what.
Finally, besides twisting truths and simply saying “nu-uh” to any factual evidence you throw their way, you have the final go-to move - demeaning the opponent. This can be done in a number of ways and liberals often show their creativity in doing so. We all know the age-old trick of calling conservatives racist, sexists, or bigots. This is the ultimate way that liberals win their wars. Once you are called a racist for disagreeing with anything Obama says, anything at all, they know you will have to defend yourself. If you don’t defend yourself, then they can keep hitting the point home. It is the type of situation they know you can not possibly win because you are guilty until proven innocent in their courts. Also, they know there is no way of proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that you really aren’t racist. If you were able to prove it, somehow, then they would have already gotten you so off topic that they would have achieved their goal anyway.
Of course, there is always the double standard of what liberals can get away with. I remember when Trent Lott said some nice things about Strom Thurmond and Trent was crucified for it because Strom had defended segregation back in the day, but had changed his ways decades before. Of course, the left had no problem praising former KKK member Robert Byrd after he died, or when Harry Reid said that Americans were ready for Obama because he was “light skinned, with no Negro dialect”, or even with the laundry list of racist comments made by Joe Biden. Nope those are all perfectly fine because they are Democrats. In fact, the left had tried and convicted the tea party for being racist on hearsay. When several conservatives offered a huge cash reward for evidence of their racism, nothing showed up. But when you have union protestors yelling racist remarks at several black speakers during the tax day rally, it gets no coverage by anyone except Fox News. And, like they’ve already told you, Fox News can not be trusted. The liberal media already deemed it unworthy, so just deal with it.
