What next, will someone post an article saying "Uruguayan sorghum farmers think NASA engineers are whiny little bitches and that they will never put anything into space" - except that NASA engineers know a shit load more about putting things into space than Uruguayan sorghum farmers and have in fact been putting things into space, putting humans into space and on the moon and visited every planet in our solar system and the opinion of Uruguayan sorghum farmers on the subject is pretty much something irrelevant, meaningless and that nobody gives a damn about.

Huh? I thought it was the liberal's worldview that we should march towards globalism, in which we care very much about what Uruguayan sorghum farmers think about our NASA engineers.

Why, are we going to start using biodiesel made from Uruguayan sorghum to fuel our rockets? I get that you were making an attempt at humor but humor works best when it actually has some kernel of sense, relevance or truth to it.

You missed the kernel of truth. It is precisely the misplaced priorities and virtue signaling exhibited by the left that result in ridiculous liberal goals akin to placing Uruguayan sorghum farms on equal footing with NASA engineers.

THIS.

Ridiculous liberal goals? SERIOUSLY? Dude, whatever it is that you're smoking, it's rotting your brain.

"Ridiculous liberal goals" is why we have better air quality (unlike China where a million plus people are dying prematurely each year because of their horrifically bad air quality) better water quality (ever seen how much trash, oil, et cetera is floating in the rivers around Chinese cities?) better and safer working conditions (unlike Chinese slave wages, people locked in factories, losing limbs, et cetera), food that's less likely to poison you (unlike melamine-tainted baby formula in China), safer consumer products, less fraud, less counterfeiting, et cetera et cetera et cetera.

And it's not "misplaced priorities" either. Jobs, economy, national security DIDN'T GO AWAY for liberals. All of that "ridiculous liberal virtues" stuff was done IN ADDITION TO all of those core things, not IN PLACE of them. Did you know that the solar power industry is one of the fastest growing job creators in the entire United States?

Oh, yeh? And why are you suddenly don't like Asian folks to immigrate to America? They don't kill people in night clubs, their kids don't piss in little girls' mouths, they don't chop up pips with machetes, don't need gov assistance - is that why, liberal racist?

really? You don't remember the VA Tech killer - the one whose family lived in Centreville?

Middle Eastern Muslims as a group is culturally oppressive to women. Within this culture a man can have four wives, beat their wives and daughter at will, force women to cover themselves, and even honor killing - this is the very definition of systematic bias, which is far more evil than the behaviors of any one private person. Yet some how feminists are blind to this, isn't this an indication for bipolar disorder? Trump gets torn to pieces for cursing or talking about pussy grabbing, but these feminists suddenly become blind to real actions that harm women.

This quote stood out to me, as this contradiction is the most glaring of all, IMO. I will never, ever understand how those who call themselves "feminists" can defend Middle Eastern Muslims, particularly men. It's absurd to say, "Oh, well not ALL of them feel/act this way." This is Middle Eastern culture. Women are hardly treated better than dogs. How can someone who identifies as a feminist defend these men and their abhorrent practices?

I'll be waiting for an honest answer, but I'm not holding my breath.

Well, you see a reasonable reading of the Qu'ran does not oppress women--but an inflamed radical reading of it definitely oppresses women. Just like the Bible.
So, feminists are embracing the more reasonable reading of the Qu'ran, just like the bible see?

Feminists follow the Episcopalian version of Islam. Conservative, but more forgiving and humanistic. Muhammad as Charleton Heston more or less.

The Christian Bible does allow for slavery - check Leviticus. However, all Christian nations have progressed enough to ban slavery.
The Koran does allow for mistreatment of women.
The fact that many Muslim nations have not progressed enough to ban mistreatment of women is not an indictment of Islam (after all, Christianity also allowed for bad things), but rather it's an indictment of societies that refuse to modernize.
