liberalism is a mental disease - what does that mean?

I see people write that and say that. What does it suppose to mean?

How are they defining liberalism?

To me liberals promote individual rights, free speech, free press, freedom of religion, secular governments and gender equality. Guys like John Stuart Mills who said the state should get involved unless there is harm or injury is a major guy for liberalism.

It seems like guys like Rush Limbaugh have tried to make liberal a derogatory term. I am still not sure what people mean when they say liberals in a derogatory way. I think they mean leftists or Marxists.

When you or your friends say liberalism is a mental disorder, how are you defining liberalism?

The SJW types going into lectures and disrupting speakers are not liberals. They are partaking in illiberal actions.

U MAD BRO?
 
Liberals are dangerous and make societies less safe.

Too much compassion over logic.

Terrorist use liberal ideology as a tool.
Claim racism and receive all types of funding and less scrutiny

How, at all, do these "promote violence to carry out"? I'm genuinely curious.

Dude

- Taxation is theft / violence
- Racial and sexual harassment is fair game
- The unbridled exercise of force / power via economic domination is fair game
- utilitarian ends NEVER justify the means, if they involve the use of arbitrary definitions of force, no matter how great the benefit and how small the transgression

There is one time that right-wing libertarians will say that the ends justify the means--the establishment of private property in the first place. Theft is bad, but buying something from someone who stole it is cool, and you have a clean chain from there.

I was like 30 posts into mindless babble before you grasped it? I WANT TO TURN YOUR INSANITY INTO A SWEATER TO KEEP ME WARM THROUGH THE COLD WINTER MONTHS.

This is lunacy on a level so high I feel like I've been railing speedballs with Dave Mustaine for the last decade straight.

Why would I empower other people to make certain decisions for me? Because I've got shit to do, son! Beyond that, the are decisions about which I know nothing! When the fuck am I going to plan and manage my public utilities? When am I going to organize my public education system? I have a business to run. I have a family to feed. I have a life to live.

I delegate that shit to other people because, surprise, IT'S THEIR JOB TO DO IT! I don't know a damn thing about wastewater management. I sure as shit don't understand the fluid dynamics and hydrostatics involved in sewers. I wouldn't know how an electrical power plant routes its generated power through a relay, to a switchboard, and then outwards. THAT'S WHY WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO ARE TRAINED TO DO THIS STUFF, AND WHY WE HAVE PEOPLE TO ADMINISTER IT.

Your, presumed, anarcho-capitalist trash is premised on the idea that you are actually capable of making all of these decisions and implementing them. You presume a level of expertise in the acquisition, proliferation, and management of all sorts of things you probably haven't considered yet. You would be living 60 hour days, 35 days a week, and presumably find time to shitpost in there a whole hell of a lot.

I love your theories because they are impractical, improbable, and completely asinine. Please never stop never stopping.

I presume no such thing. That's why I hire a lawyer when I need legal advice and why I hire a machanic when I need a car repair.

But great so if you want those services to be delegated why do you and everyone else need their purchase to be compelled?

Is there a solution to that theft without a claimant?

Why would sexual harrassment fair game? Isnt it reasonable that people would pay to outlaw that kind of activity in a free society?

And unbridled what again?

Man, those people being imported aren't the Syrian or Saudi government; they're just normal people. They weren't executing anyone. In many cases, they are fleeing the possibility of being executed because they themselves are gay. That's not a blanket rule, but nothing really is.

There's no contradiction.

They are not "normal" people in terms of their compatibility with Western culture. They are Muslims, and Muslims hate gay people and vast numbers of them think gays should be thrown from rooftops.

Did you know that the majority of Muslims in the United Kingdom want homosexuality to be banned? And the majority want Sharia imposed.

They want to bring death to the gays and they don't hide it. They are just waiting until their numbers are high enough to impose their will.

How do you get 350,000,000 people together to collectively hire a specialist?

A large number of American Christians hate gay people and believe homosexulality should be a crime. Are they "compatible with Western culture"? If not, why is the focus on Muslim attitudes towards these issues?

I've read some polls that were debunked on the subject.

This is extreme paranoia, you know that, right? You seem to believe there is some massive cabal of Muslims communing in some fortress waiting for their moment to strike as though it's a DC comic. Seriously, man, these people just want to go to work, come home, feed their families, and watch Netflix. Their skin is brown, because their parents' skin was brown. They practice a religion that differs from your own in form but not in kind. Cool it.

It is fair game. If the boss harasses an employee, he/she can quit. The NAP says it's fair game, economic blackmail is a ok.
