What radicalized you?

Well, since all your opinions are objective and true, nothing further to discuss.

Or, you could actually present some evidence to the contrary for a change

My opinions are not always objective and true, but the facts I present usually are unless I express uncertainty or doubt
 
Right, in the 21st century, we are the real radicals. I doubt college kids in the 60s could realistically fathom the reality of legal marijuana, gay marriage, a black president, a female vice president.
sure we could. but it just takes time for these things to materialize.
There has been a movement to legalize weed (NORMAL) since I can remember
I just mentioned the 60's were the beginning of the end of strict sex or race based roles.

The Civil Rights Act of' 64 PROFOUNDLY changed housing to integrated neighborhoods.
It wasn't easy - but the law was clear and eventually redlining and block busting were halted,
even if "white flight" was not...which begat "gentrification" etc.

I grew up close to Morgan State University (NE Baltimore)-which was a small back college back then
and now a montrously big university. Black professional class took over my mostly white neighborhood of the early 60's and by the early 70's was fully integrated, and headed toward majority minority.
No riots either..so that happened quickly

White flight was the Hallmark of the 1960s. That was the peak of white people fleeing to the suburbs to flee the "darkies". In general, when you think about the mid to late 60s, whites couldn't get away fast enough from blacks.

I seriously doubt the 1960s are actually remembered as an era of harmonious urban integration of the races.

The return to the core urban areas of the inner city by white urban hipsters didn't really get a foothold until the 1990s. Though that created a whole new problem associated with gentrification.

It took 40 years after the 1960s to legalize marijuana. And that was mostly thanks to Gen X and millennials, not 60s boomers.

60s boomers played a marginal role at best, in legalization of same sex marriage equality.

The real radical change was enacted by people who knew how to work in the system. Hitchhiking to Woodstock and and experimenting with LSD were not really going to accomplish that much.

We can thank the black community for advances in civil rights. White college kids in the 60s were not the tip of the spear in that regard either.

Many people are not radicalized; instead, they try to use rational thought based on creditable unbiased information. Radicalized people base their beliefs on emotions and interpret everything based on preconceived, rigid, ideological convictions. The result is the huge partisan split based on hatred of the other side.

You are the most extreme of anyone on JPP because of your reactionary centrism that compels you to make false equivalences in order to maintain this posturing you're doing.
 
shit head - this is the anonymous internet

Right, the anonymous internet that allows you to say whatever fanciful shit you want about yourself and you have no obligation to prove any of it true.

Not my first rodeo with frauds like you.


you can waste your time pretending to know when people are lying

I don't need to pretend because you're not very good at it, so I can tell when you're lying because you make it obvious.


or you can attempt to act human and debate what they say instead of this childish game of debating who they are

What you want is for me to just blindly accept every single thing you say about yourself because you're using all that to establish credibility in an argument where you have none because you're a fucking liar, an idiot, or both.
 
Ruby Ridge and Waco were the things that 'radicalized' me to be a minarchist Libertarian.

Oh really?

So what was it?

Was it when Koresh was molesting kids or when he threatened federal officials?

And why didn't they just comply in Ruby Ridge?


The last 3 years is what 'radicalized' me toward anarcho-capitalist Libertarianism.

What a jumble of nonsense.

and you also have no way either - so you can continue to be a shit head and declare you know when people are lying even though you can't possibly know - our you can start acting like an adult with a functioning brain and debate ideas and not this vanity bullshit you are always involved in
 
And contrary to those who think America needs to be torn down it’s still the land of dreams and opportunity which is why we draw so many people here


You're really fucked up if that's your view, cawacko. I'd hate to muddle through life as you. You must constantly bump into things. Eventually, it will be a bus.

An "extreme reactionary centrist"????

LV426 is creeping closer and closer to the edge and pushes nothing but hate.
 
and you also have no way either

Right, which is why I never, ever, ever invoke personal given circumstances or anecdotes here and am immediately suspicious of anyone who does.

In fact, I believe you less the more you talk about yourself.

You want us to believe everything you say about yourself because that's how you're establishing credibility instead of establishing it through facts, links, support, or data.

Instead, we get stories that you invent or exaggerate in order to lend yourself credibility you don't otherwise have.

I get it you are a liar and naturally assume others are as well

the problem dip shit - is I have been consistently arguing for vaccines from the time this hit. I have posted over and over arguing people should get vaccinated - have stated multiple times I was vaccinated - and speculated when I did get covid, - the vaccination helped keep symptoms minimal.

so you are just a fucking idiot - as you prove day in and day out

and why I would lie about having an auto immune disease makes no sense - but again - you are retarded and say things that make no sense

That is 100% what you are...you're purely reactionary and that compels you to find false equivalences so you can maintain this phony baloney façade of centrism.

Fascists: Let's do genocide.

Progressives: Let's not.

Centrists: Ok, Ok...you're gonna have to compromise, how about some genocide?

Fascists: I guess I can live with that for now.

Progressives: No.

Centrists: See, this is why no one likes the left, you guys are such extremists.
 
He is correct. You are a reactionary centrist. And that's being polite.

You don't even know what that means. Like LV426, your politics consists of hate and personal insults but never anything of substance. It is less about politics than personal hostility issues.
