Are you stating that you do not know any right wingers that have not killed anyone?

Or are you stating that you don’t know any right wingers?

In **gonzo** ’s post, “who have not” means “thing”. Replace the phrase with that word, and it becomes not only truthful, but pretty obvious.

It’s sad that **Der Trihs** is to much of a coward to actually try to defend his statements and attitudes in the pit. The OP is a clear, concise dissection of what makes **Der Trihs** such an enemy of the causes he claims to believe in.

I often wonder if he is aware that with his hatred and bile, he has become that which he claims turned him into the thing he most hated as a younger person. A bully, and a jerk.

Liar.

Isn’t lying fun. I can lie too. I am a level 3 right-winger. I am currently killing 2 brown people a day. If I can get up to killing 5 brown people a day I will reach level 4. But it’s kind of hard because then that will cut into my abortion clinic bombing time and that is very important to me.

That actually makes way more sense than believing he believes the things he says.  
Actually now that I’ve thought about it I don’t know any liberals who have not killed.\*

\*If you have ever picked a flower or given flowers to someone and did not keep that flower alive until the ennd of time then you have killed.

You know what? I live in Oregon - even living near the supposed liberal nexus of Portland, close to half the folks I know would call themselves right-wingers. And somehow, I doubt that they’re all itching for the blood of immigrants/abortion doctors/Muslims/etc. Sure, I’ve met some racist, asshole, ignorant rednecks in my time - just as I’ve met some smug, elitist, hipster douchebags in my time. It takes all kinds, I guess.

Seriously, how do you live in a modern, diverse society with this black-and-white, “you must be evil if you don’t think like me” attitude? Have you never met a conservative you liked? How do folks like you hold down jobs? Do you simply not speak to people you feel are guilty of the sin of consvative values? I just don’t get it.

No, I think he means killing is in the actual _blood_ like in “The Thing”, and that if you are left alone with a conservative, it will devour you and assume your form. He’s suggesting we send Snake Pliskin down to Antarctica before the aliens get the balanced budget amendment passed.

I think Der Trihs is in part responsible for the Der Trihsing of GD and the Pit. Hyperbole, vitriol, and comic bookery substitute for debate and is less interesting than the policy debate that was one more common here (as I recall).

I also find his statements and actions to be in contradiction: for example, he’ll say that democrats are just as bad as republicans, but only refers to republicans as EVIL.

You guys are too stupid to recognize a flippant response when you read it. Read CEDMAN’s post and see it you can follow it all the way . It was Post 7, in case that is too hard for you.What a bunch of cretins.

When people have trouble distinguishing your “dumb but flippant” posts from your “dumb but earnest” posts, the problem may just possibly lie in the writing.

I second the above. **Mosier’s** , right. You are an idiot. Look buddy, if your flippant response doesn’t produce the result you want, it’s not the fault of the audience. It’s your damn fault. If the audience doesn’t “get it”, 99% of the time it’s because the speaker can’t communicate, is an idiot, or, as in your case, both.
