Was he a little fat kid, dressed for winter? Don’t trust him, whatever you do. Anyway, I trust people have seen my little manifesto, back in the old thread, so I feel like it is time for me to post here.
**1) How much do you participate in Great Debate threads?
** frequently, when it is a hot button topic. Otherwise, I just sit back and listen.
** 2) How much do you read GD threads?
** frequently
3)What are your goals for participating in Great Debates discussions?
h. Because it’s something to do during work hours, and it’s more interesting than my job. and
b. To fight ignorance by showing my opponents why they are wrong and why I am right. Even though it will never happen.
To give a little more detail, I see liberals and conservatives fighting here. True, some of them come to terms, and understand the other side, but still, lotsa fighting. Now, personally, I see the liberals showing how things should be, while the republicans are simply being apologists for what the politicians do. True, my side is seen in the same light, but still, that is how I feel. The republican are all enablers of the politicians. They **must ** be shown that!
Personally though, that is not why I started here. I saw threads where each side seemed not to realize what the other side was really saying, and I felt neither understood the other. Can’t remember if it was in GD, or in Cafe Society, but a good example can be found here.
P.S. Thank you, Goddess.
