Conservatism: the conservation of social norms and ideas that have proven themselves over time to produce a stable society.

Yeah, reality...

Dude, STFU.

You left out the part about desperately clinging to the our extremely racist past and failing to adapt and change to a new world with nearly 8 billion humans. The only way forward is not to go backwards...

I can copy and past from Wikipedia too.

This is where we are and what we need in this country:

A secondary meaning for the term liberal conservatism that has developed in Europe is a combination of more modern conservative (less traditionalist) views with those of social liberalism. This has developed as an opposition to the more collectivist views of socialism. Often this involves stressing what are now conservative views of free market economics and belief in individual responsibility, with social liberal views on defence of civil rights, environmentalism and support for a limited welfare state. In continental Europe, this is sometimes also translated into English as social conservatism.

Again: STFU. It's only racism when white people do it. There is no "new world", dipschitt. This is the same world that has been here a very long time.

You are sucked into a horseshit progressive narrative, and don't seem to be aware of it. I suggest getting some help from a friend, who could grab your shoulders and pull until your head comes out of your ass.

Quite possibly post of the year.

My mother is a retired teacher and while she was pro teacher union while in, she’s changed her ways since retirement. Most of her friends are all retired now, and they all say that their political believes should never be seen or heard by their students. All of my mom’s friends that taught, were also at church every Sunday. I guess growing up in small town America m, teachers had more conservative values, it now days a lot has changed in the school district. Of course college, that’s a whole different level of liberals from my experience.

I guess we will have to agree to disagree. It's a shame you are unable to do so in a tactful manner. Truly makes me question how and why (or if?) you got so involved in the world of academia as you claim.

There is a new world. One that has 7.5 Billion people and is rapidly growing, with no change in the size of the earth or the resources on it. My main draw to the left is protecting planet earth and a dash of social justice, I otherwise am very Libertarian (voted for Gary Johnson).

Who is "our"?


What a global homo you are, new gal.

Curious. What makes our past racist?

Ramsdudes sounds awfully close to Buttfugker.

LOL

It's such a shame that this country is so full of people whose heads are buried in the sand that are so completely convinced that anybody who has different thoughts has their head buried in the sand.

How in the world can anyone that has read a single history book refute that this country has a racist past. Open your eyes and you will see we still have a racist present. And YES that goes in multiple directions not only white people are racist...there are just more white people in this country and it sells better to put white racism on the news.

Bet you’d change your tune if I stood behind you with a hard on.

LOL

truly good teachers are amazing people, but i have also met a few who really don't like their jobs, the students or the parents. they like the money, benefits, Summers off if that's their thing. For some, the return after Summer vacation can be a real problem for them.

I remember a racist past. I remember going to an AutoZone in town. It was close to MLK ave, & was the only one in town that had the neutral saftey switch I needed. I remember rap music coming out of speakers in freakin autozone. I recall being only white dude in there with a dozen black dudes. I recall them cutting in line at register , & daring me to do something. This was 20 yrs ago. I could give more examples of the so called racist past. Give me a freakin break.

Your eloquence knows no bounds.

If you are referring to me, sir, please re-read my query. I refuted nothing. Your response, however, is telling.


Agreed. This may be something on which you may want to meditate in order to reduce the number.

Ummmmmmm, yes I most certainly can.

Is that you Piddles? New sockpuppet eh

Duderammer is an interesting choice of screen names.

Interesting that the majority of responses to my points are mediocre middle school grade insults. Very compelling stuff that really does a lot for the dialogue. Bravo
