Journal HeghmoH's Journal: Right vs Left 2

This Red vs Blue video is very appropriate.

Why can't I make a simple comment about my probable choice in November and my reasons for making that choice without being insulted by somebody who can't spell? My post is very straightforward. I spell out the choice and the reasons. I don't insult Bush, I don't insult Bush supporters, I don't insult anybody, and still, the debate degenerates into an all-out battle, just like the video.

In fairness, I got a lot of nice responses, too. But still, why can't somebody state his opinion on the internet without being jumped on?

I guess it's just more evidence for how anonymity removes inhibitions.

Right vs Left

Comments Filter:
  • Both the pseudo-conservatives now identified with the "right" and everyone on the "left" are statists. They both want to deny freedom and impose their control. It's just a question of tactics. The "political spectrum" is no such thing.

    This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang, or whimper, but an avalanche of bullshit.

    Come now... Surely you've heard of trolls before now.

    There are just some people in the world intent on trashing everyone else in the world. Just disregard it and move on.

    The only real issue I can see, is that you are overly sensitive to the remarks of some random idiot...
