Why do so many people love Trump? Mostly because they hate the Democrats so passionately, it blinds them to Trump's many faults.

And why do they hate the Democrats so passionately? It must be hard to understand if you are a Democrat. After all, Democrats are the party that stands for compassion and intelligence.

But that's it. That's why they hate you. You honestly believe you are compassionate and intelligence, in the face of all contradicting evidence.

So I hope that clarifies things for you.

So conservatives hate intelligence and compassion? I don't believe that.

My vision is fine.

Perhaps if you rephrase your original statement, basically you are saying that Conservatives hate Liberals because Liberals try to be compassionate and intelligent. That makes no sense as I know plenty of Conservatives who are both.

Wait. So you hate Democrats because you think you're compassionate?

A trite saying with little actual meaning. The road to hell can be many paths.

What's your point?

No, I didn't say what you said I said.

Lots of people, some of them conservative, hate the Democrats because the Democrats THINK they are more compassionate and intelligent.

I'd like to see you provide some kind of justification for this contention.
 
Dems are so compassionate that they'll jam their "compassion" right down your throat. All for your own good, of course.:lol:

Anybody who "hates the Democrats" is such a complete idiot and jerk his opinion doesn't matter anyway. Same with anyone who "hates the Republicans".
How did your country get so ****ed up? Oh, I know, hyper-partisan assholes ****ed it up. Still are ****ing it up, and grinning like an adolescent pulling wings off flies while they do it

This has been my observation. If you don't agree, you could provide justification for your disagreement.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you ever wanted to see a textbook example of the Dunning-Kruger effect, there it is.

Win any argument easily. Just bring up the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Are you seriously trying to say if Obama acted the way Trump does on Twitter and towards others you wouldn't have a problem with it? That is the example of your blindness. Cons got upset when Obama wore a tan suit and put his feet up on the White House desk. Now you cons are excusing Trump's adolescent actions. You are blinded by hatred of the left and Dems, that you all excuse actions of the president you would NEVER have let a Dem president do. Plain and simple. You support a child in the White House like Trump and the only reason you allow it is because he trolls. Sad but you guys have lost ALL credibility and I can't wait for a Dem president so any complaint that comes from the likes of you will be answered with "Still better than Trump". No other reply will be necessary with all you have allowed Trump to get away with.

So all those conservatives are "haters", and Democrats are just incorrect? You're bragging about being the party of haters? Where's the unity?

Democrats think they are compassionate, but you hate them for it...are they not more compassionate to you self-admitted petty-hatred?

Your forum handle really answers this and any other thread you post..thanks for that I guess. Truth in advertising.

His claim is that democrats claim the mantle of compassion and intelligence, but aren't compassionate, and aren't intelligent.

This from the party who wants to stop select americans from serving in the military to defend the country they love, all according to gender identity; this from the party who wants to force women to give birth; this from the party who wants to throw millions of americans off their healthcare; this from the party who endlessly shifts tax burdens to those our chosen system of economics has knowingly left behind; this from the party who uses religion as a cover for bad behavior; this from the party who declared war on the democrats in the 90's and now seeks to paint the left as "extreme"; this from the party who struck down part of the VRA which immediately led to the GOP seeking to undermine and destroy voter blocs countrywide; this coming from the party who thinks gay people are second rate citizens and a biblical definition of marriage should be applied across all people regardless of religious choice; this from the party who excused militant, imperialist wars against international law that led to millions of deaths; this from the party that advocates for monetary policy that would harm american citizens.

This from the cannibal party of the US who would consume the lifeblood of americans, their own constituency, to feed the vampiric desires of corporations?

**** right off.

I don’t think you quite understand what that saying is “predicting”.

It has nothing to do with doing good or being a good person. It’s the warning against trying to solve problems by making rules YOU deem “good” to curb behavior YOU deem “bad”. Ie the war on drugs, outlawing abortion, criminalizing sex work, etc.

I think your biggest problem is that you did not properly support your opening argument. Remember, you need supporting sentences that logically flow from that opening statement. My comments are in red.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why do so many people love Trump? Mostly because they hate the Democrats so passionately, it blinds them to Trump's many faults. Good start here, the opening statement had a logical flow where it is obvious that the premise is that you are attempting to answer the question of trumps popularity.

And why do they hate the Democrats so passionately? It must be hard to understand if you are a Democrat. After all, Democrats are the party that stands for compassion and intelligence. Poor. At the second sentence, instead of using logical connections, you delve instead choose to go after a straw-man. This is known as a logical fallacy. Poor marks for that. The third sentence does not support the strawman, further poor marks.

But that's it. That's why they hate you. You honestly believe you are compassionate and intelligence, in the face of all contradicting evidence. poor marks for grammatical errors on this line. unsupported statement "in the face of all contradicting evidence". There is no evidence presented, you did not support your premise.

So I hope that clarifies things for you. Poor conclusion, your premise was not supported nor was your supporting premise clearly stated

So in this case, the point made about the Dunning-Kruger effect has substance due to the poor opening of this thread. I suggest you rewrite this to a more clear and concise statement and try again.

The idea is that liberal policies are "hHell". Ok. However, much of Europe is prospering, so its a piss poor definition of Hell.
