A Brief Guide to the Nature of Our Pathology

Helen Smith, “a psychologist specializing in forensic issues” in Knoxville, Tennessee, poses today’s question:

Why are liberals unable to sympathize with conservatives? I offer three possibilities.

1. Lies about Iraq, lies about torture, lies about “Death Panels,” lies about climate change, lies about the Census, lies about upper-class tax cuts, lies about the Senate Parliamentarian, lies about the “Death Tax,” lies about the job performance of emergency-management administrators, lies about commonly used parliamentary procedures, lies about the birthplace and political views of democratically elected Presidents, lies about the Congressional Budget Office, lies about “defending” legally recognized cohabitation, lies about arbitrarily incarcerated foreign nationals, lies about decorated war veterans, lies about the nature of human sexual desire, lies about the political ambitions of evening cable-news hosts, lies about the agency of former Presidents in the dissolution of Communist nation-states, lies about the journalistic integrity of politically driven cable channels, lies about the size of racist protest crowds, lies about the efficiency of government programs that have been starved of revenue, lies about scientific theories of species development, lies about Leviticus being elective, lies about the racism of tanning-bed taxes, lies about plans to move to Costa Rica, lies about the lies they told yesterday, and lies about the nutritional value of ketchup.

2. See above.

3. See above.

How Should Conservatives Deal with the Left’s Disrespect and Lack of Empathy? [Pajamas Media]

4. Stop being assholes who can’t deal with reality
I stopped talking to a contard who I once called friend because he’s unable to deal with reality. He still thinks that the 15 or so times he’s been fired isn’t because he’s an arrogant incompetent prick who can’t work with others or gain people’s trust. It’s NEVER his fault, it’s all jealousy and politics. My reply? Okay, good luck with that and see ya.

5. You get what you give.
Hey cons, I know it is hard to understand, but most libruls I know are caring types who have a lot of empathy. The problem is that not showing shreds of compassion for those less fortunate than you hardens libs feelings towards you. Maybe if you showed some genuine human compassion instead of saying losers, or fucking immigrants or suck it cancer kid then libs might not be such pricks themselves.

6. Contrary to your popular belief, you don’t have much empathy.
Outside of your little social circles, you don’t give a shit which is a problem as the world is way bigger than the local Cheeto appreciation society. See 5.

7. Read more. Denying scientific knowledge and historical facts because it doesn’t suit your myopic world view (Contardpedia, anyone) gives smart folks the idea that you are functionally retarded or something. Some Libs don’t know much either, but they don’t pretend to know like you do. It really pisses off smart people who do read or have degrees in the field of knowledge.

8. Stop pretending to be things you’re not. I’m looking at you self loathing deep in denial (but obvious to everyone else) types, the wannabe rich, wannabe smart (see 7) and the wannabe brave. It’s all right to wannabe, but your problem is that many folks stop pretending after puberty and spend a good portion of their adult life trying/accepting who they are. Face it, if you have to play act that you are then you’re not.

9. Learn to accept the black man (Barry) as your leader. Disagree with guy, fine. Sending racist shit and denying it? Not so fine. Not fine at all actually. Blaming ACORN and black conspiracies denies (see 4) that many people voted for him. Millions more than who voted for the senile white extremely flawed hero carrier killer and the Talibunny.

10. Oh and stop eating buckets of Cheetos, deep fried cow parts and gallons of gravy then wondering why people think you’re fat. Screaming “BEEFCAKE!” doesn’t work. Don’t go scurrying off for the nearest fad because it will either kill you or not work (see Atkins.) It’s all hard exercise (walking to the fridge does NOT count) and eat healthy (limit Cheeto intake is a small step, but NOT the only step unlike my housemate’s current view.) No it’s that simple, but as a wise Chinese man once wrote some 4000+ years ago in a manual on WAR (suck it, Von Clauswitz!) , “the simple things are hard.”

Good luck with that. No, really.

I can’t figure out a way to improve on ManchuCandidate, so I won’t.

They might try acting like conservatives, instead of cackling, mouth-breathing neomedievalists.

But I expect the question posed on PJ Media is expected to elicit comments along the lines of ‘disembowel the fuckers, baptize them and send them to hell where they belong!’

@ManchuCandidate: Darling, rest. You’ve been through a lot recently.

Oh, and plus they’re really not very nice.

@FlyingChainSaw: They are also very petty. The second primary reason the South seceded, after Slavery, according to the various declarations of secession passed by the pigfucker legislatures, was the federal government spending money on “aids to navigation.” Yes indeedy, they didn’t think it fittin’ to spend money on buoys and lighthouses. Kinda like the Randians and their feelings on public roads. Socialism.

@Prommie: Yes indeedy, they didn’t think it fittin’ to spend money on buoys and lighthouses.

How ironic then that now the ‘tards are spending money on boys and bathhouses.

@Prommie: So, they thought the cotton would have to wait to be delivered by jets?

@FlyingChainSaw: This here is from Mississippi’s Declaration of the Reasons for Secession, fascinating shit:

“The navigating interests begged for protection against foreign shipbuilders and against competition in the coasting trade. Congress granted both requests, and by prohibitory acts gave an absolute monopoly of this business to each of their interests, which they enjoy without diminution to this day. Not content with these great and unjust advantages, they have sought to throw the legitimate burden of their business as much as possible upon the public; they have succeeded in throwing the cost of light-houses, buoys, and the maintenance of their seamen upon the Treasury, and the Government now pays above $2,000,000 annually for the support of these objects. Theses interests, in connection with the commercial and manufacturing classes, have also succeeded, by means of subventions to mail steamers and the reduction in postage, in relieving their business from the payment of about $7,000,000 annually, throwing it upon the public Treasury under the name of postal deficiency. The manufacturing interests entered into the same struggle early, and has clamored steadily for Government bounties and special favors. This interest was confined mainly to the Eastern and Middle non-slave-holding States.”

@ナビスコ: “the maintenance of their seamen,” he he, boys, bathhouses, and the maintenance of their semen.

@FlyingChainSaw: Then as now, they are just fucking stupid.

Well, here’s what they think about our side. From a post at saysuncle.com on how the NRA is tight with Sen. Harry Reid:

“The NRA is welcome to get “chummy” with whomever they desire. My aversion to slime keeps me from warming up to Dinghy Harry regardless the single issue views that we might share. While I greatly value my RKBA, I more greatly value the hope that my children and grandchildren will not live in a dem-socialist distopia with a crippled economy. Harry Reid can rot in hell – I’ll take my 2A chances with his successor.”

“Modern progressive/liberal thought is a cancer on society in general and individual rights in particular. ”

“Harry Reid is a danger to liberty. As such he needs to go home and stay there. I hope the voters deliver that message.”

@redmanlaw:
And then they wonder why libruls laugh and make fun of them and hurt their porkpie feewings. Really miserable fucks, ain’t they?

Disagree, fine. This enemy of the state bullshit goes way beyond that. We’re talking Lord of the Flies kind of insanity here.

See, this is what happens when you don’t remember to say “Bless their hearts” before you go on to point out how willfully ignorant, greedy, selfish, shortsighted, deceptive, self-deceiving, indoctrinated, incapable of logical thought, uneducated, psychopathic, moronic, racist, stupid, fat, and ugly they are. They think you don’t “sympathize.” Let me just say that this liberal is deeply, sincerely sorry for them because they are all of these things. Bless their hearts.

Conservatives: perpetual victims.

If they would stop screaming so loud, maybe they could hear what they were saying and feel some shame.

@karen marie: feel some shame
Hahahahahahhahahahhahahahhahhahahha!
Thanks. I really needed a good laugh today.
