Why do liberals seem to harbor more hatred toward conservatives than conservatives do toward liberals?

Communist just have a cult mentality. It comes with collectivism... They're like the borg. They think everyone has to assimilate and obey. They can't accept different points of view, because everything has to be centrally dictated by their cult of personality dear leader... Communism is total government. Everyone must submit to being a slave for it to work. So when people have different points of view and they for example enjoy themselves on private land where the government can't control them the commies lose their mind. They're like what are they doing, they are acting free, that is unexceptionable! For example here are some Florida men on their own property riding around in side by sides which are basically supped up golf carts hanging out with their families on the weekend cutting lose before they have to go back to work and bust ass the rest of the week.

With liberals they know deep down that they believe in crazy stuff. They cannot defend their positions an any of it. Global warming, 52 genders, illegal aliens are good for American, printing more money does not cause inflation or aborting a baby after it has been born is okay. They get angry at the stupidity of it all but cannot take responsibility so they blame conservatives

[exitseven]

Thanks for the MHO😎

[Tiffany_Taylor_Made]

Yet, you provided absolutely no evidence for why you believe this is true. Considering the fact that most politically motivated violence, hate crimes, hate speech, and domestic terrorism is committed by those that identify as "conservative," I'm not convinced that liberals hate conservatives more than conservatives hate liberals. Instead, those that identify as "liberals" believe that change is necessary to improve the quality of America, such as implementing changes in law that counter prejudice and corruption, and they grow frustrated with conservatives resisting such change, especially when they deny the existence of such problems even in the face of direct evidence.

[KrakenAttackin]

@Tiffany_Taylor_Made Well, let's start with the "mostly peaceful" riots, murders, and looting.

[Tiffany_Taylor_Made]

@KrakenAttackin: Not every riot, murder, or looting committed by people identifying as "liberals" is done as an expression of hatred towards "conservatives" or conservatism in general. However, history, statistics, and more recent events such as slavery and the crimes motivated by it, hate crime statistics committed mostly by those associated with far-right organizations or ideologies, and politically motivated acts of violence such as bombings and mass shootings.

[KrakenAttackin]

@Tiffany_Taylor_Made. Blah blah blah... go ahead and rationalize your revisionist history. You can't use "slavery" as more white people have been (and still are) slaves than blacks. Blacks are just the ones who can't get over something that ended more than 140 years ago. Also, your beloved crazies are responsible for more murder and mayhem during a weekend in Chicago than any conservative group is all year long.

Just stop.

[Tiffany_Taylor_Made]

@KrakenAttackin: The amount of people who have been slaves or the fact that Whites have been slaves is irrelevant. What's relevant is that specifically Black chattel slavery is an aspect of true American history, and it was indeed based on hatred and supremacy. The Census from the 1800s does indeed prove that the vast majority of slaves were Black and that nearly 100% of the slave-owners were White. The push to maintain slavery during and after the Civil War was done so based on far-right conservative viewpoints. None of this is "revisionist history." I'm not saying it because I "can't get over it." I'm saying it because, even way back then, it proves my point of how conservatism has always harbored more hatred towards liberals than the other way around. For example, KKK members have literally lynched people that advocated against slavery. Also, not every aspect of "murder and mayhem" in Chicago is a result of hate being committed by liberals against conservatives, and the amount of crimes committed is irrelevant. The vast majority of crime in Chicago is gang related with no political motivation whatsoever. You still haven't provided any evidence to prove yourself right or me wrong. Do you have any evidence of liberals expressing more hate towards conservatives or are you just going to keep mentioning things that aren't even relevant to the two political ideologies? If you can't do that, then you, yourself, should "just stop."

[KrakenAttackin]

@Tiffany_Taylor_Made. You really are well programmed. Remember when Trump was elected and folds like you burned down several cities, murders people, looted everything in site?

Your side is the side of pure vitriol and hate.

[KrakenAttackin]

Someone wearing a MAGA hat isn't safe to walk in most cities, however, when have you heard of someone wearing a "Biden" hat being attacked?

[Tiffany_Taylor_Made]

@KrakenAttackin: Yes, I'm well programmed to process the truth. I remember mostly peaceful protests after Trump was elected, and yes, some riots did occur. Yet, the claim that several cities were "burned down" is an exaggeration and you provided no evidence of murders. Yet, I am well-aware of Trump supporters storming the Capitol based on the false narrative that their lord and savior had the election stolen from him "because of the Democrats," which actually did result in a few politically motivated deaths, proving my point even further.

by the way, I don't take any sides, Kraken. I only side with the facts. I don't identify with liberalism or conservatism, nor do I join any groups, as none of it matters. What matters is what's true or false, and so far, you haven't proved me untruthful. Also, prove that wearing a Maga hat is unsafe in most cities. Merely claiming that Maga hatters are victims of politically motivated violence per se isn't evidence. Also, does your evidence outnumber the many cases of conservatives expressing hate towards liberalism dating from slavery to minorities being the most frequent victims of hate crimes since they began recording the stats? Conservatives have expressed hate towards liberals long before Trump was even born. As for the Biden hat thing, Biden hats are nowhere near as popular as Trump hats. lol However, plenty of cases exist of people being attacked for wearing Black Lives Matter merch.

[KrakenAttackin]

Attached for wearing BLM... BULLSHIT.

[OtterMan68]

@KrakenAttackin and was that motivated by political hate? Did they seek out and attack conservatives?

[KrakenAttackin]

@OtterMan68 Yes! Look at the violence against cars with conservative stickers on the and and hones that dared to have a Trump sign in front.

A quick story. My brother (now deceased) was very left of center. He came to visit with his family years ago and he was hauling a trailer. Before he left, as a joker, I snuck out and slapped a "McCain for President" sticker on the rear of his trailer. He drove back to Vermont and stopped at a diner. When he came out he found all of his tires slashed and a slash across the sticker.🤔. I felt so bad I bought him all new tires. This is the left, they feel entitled to destroy , rob, and kill.

[Tiffany_Taylor_Made]

@KrakenAttackin: The problem with your comment is that it uses anecdotal evidence, which has to be verified to hold any merit. Thus, the possibility exists that your story could be entirely fictional and, therefore, cannot convince a skeptic unless it is proven to be truth. Even if your story was true, it is still not without its issues. Firstly, no evidence in the story proves that your brother had his tires slashed because of his McCain sticker. For all we know, his crazy ex-boyfriend could have caught up with him in Vermont. Secondly, even if such vandalism was politically motivated and committed by liberals, it still doesn't prove that liberals express more hatred than conservatives. A single example does not outweigh the large number of politically motivated attacks, discrimination, and extensive hate crime statistics formed and carried out by ultraconservative hate groups throughout history.

[Tiffany_Taylor_Made]

@KrakenAttackin

Evidence that I'm still waiting on:

• Several cities being burned down by liberals after Trump's election, and how this related to conservatives being targets of the violence.
• Murders being committed by liberals against conservatives because of Trump's election.
• Liberals endangering conservatives for wearing Maga hats and how wide-reaching of an issue this is.
• How the story about your brother having his truck vandalized by liberals over a McCain sticker is true and not just made up.

In addition, I expect the evidence to be relevant to liberals expressing hate towards conservatives for politically motivated reasons and for such evidence to outweigh the longstanding history of ultraconservative groups expressing hate towards liberalism throughout the years, such as those that supported slavery, enacted hateful laws, and committed hate crimes all under the banner of conservatism. If you can't provide the evidence, then simply admit that I'm right and you're wrong.

[exitseven]

Yes, conservatives were responsible for the riots of 2020.

[Tiffany_Taylor_Made]

@exitseven: The 2020 riots don't somehow prove that liberals are more hateful than conservatives. It merely proves that liberals can engage in politically motivated violence at times. Moreover, not every group that rioted during the time was a liberal group as well. The Boogaloo Bois have also been documented to have partaken in the riots, which is an ultraconservative group, proving my point further. Regardless, such riots weren't committed to target conservatives specifically. However, conservatives did indeed storm the Capitol in 2021 with the sole purpose of attacking liberal and/or Democratic politicians not long after they negatively judged the liberals for the 2020 riots.

[exitseven]

In 2020 before the election it was wildly considered that President Trump would probsbly be re-elected. Sheets of plywood were soldout in all the stores. People did not buy them thinking tht conservatives would riot if Biden won. It was quite the opposite. Most conservatives are too busy working, paying taxes to support the liberal deadbeats that have the time to go and burn down buildings and burn police cars.

[Tiffany_Taylor_Made]

@exitseven: Yet, "conservatives" rioted, attacked the Capitol, and killed people when Trump lost the election, where they were mostly driven by false narratives and kneejerk anti-Democrat sentiment. Ultraconservatives have also killed peaceful protesters several times throughout many parts of history and during more recent times. Conservatives are definitely not above committing politically motivated riots and attacks, especially as an expression of hatred towards what they perceive to be liberalism. I also fail to understand how your comment falsifies anything I said. I'm not arguing that "liberals" don't riot or commit acts of violence. I'm arguing that they don't do so against conservatives as an expression of hatred as often as conservatives do towards liberals, which is definitely backed by evidence provided by the FBI, Department of Justice, and other sources. Do you have anything proving otherwise?

[wiltingrosepetal]

Conservatives don't react kindly when a new thing comes along and tests their ideology. They don't want it. And when you're, say... gay, trans, poc, disabled, etc... you're pretty used to being unwanted. This creates a personal hatred for conservatives.

A lot of liberals are just the outcasts of society. As you can imagine, they're not going to be nice to the people who made society like that.

But hey, that's just a guess 🤷‍♀️

[Kelley1]

Because liberals hate the fact that they cannot support their beliefs (big government and socialism) with facts but conservatives can support their beliefs (free enterprise, and limited government) with facts.

[abc3643]

Says the girl who isn't barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen but is instead allowed to speak her mind, get a free education, own property, hold a job with benefits and limited hours, say "No" to her husband, and vote - none of which she could have done without liberals creating progress.

[Kelley1]

@abc3643 You live is a fantasy utopia of your own making.

[abc3643]

LOL... OK.

Unfortunately, I won't live long enough, but I'd love to know what you are going to be like in 30 years. You've put a ceiling on your intellect by not being skeptical of the crap you're being spoon-fed or narrowly absorbing from bad sources. Reality and history have a way of penetrating that ceiling over time eventually shattering it for most functional adults. The sad thing, then, is that these adults realize how much time they wasted when they were young by not knowing and understanding and being so overconfident of their limited and misguided worldview.

[abc3643]

I am serious. It breaks my heart in a way because I see so much potential in you - more so than most kids your age. Yet, you are literally throwing it away by having grown up in a way that has misguided you and because your ultimate objective, I believe, is going to be as a "traditional housewife".

Mark my words about that: Being a "traditional housewife" not a good destiny for you because you are too strong-willed and opinionated and intelligent to be subservient to a man less than you. This will cause you to become angry and despair. You need to be you and find a man who will be your equal and partner, not your overlord.

[abc3643]

Print out this conversation because, one day probably after I am gone, you will look back and realize I was right. I hope that will give you the strength that you will need to let you be the real you instead of being what you were told to become.

[Kelley1]

@abc3643 In the first place unlike Yeonmi Park, I am not exceptionally talented so being a traditional housewife and mother is fine for me."

Second your ideology is more in tune with China under Mao Zedong and North Korea while mine is more in tune with Hong Kong during Mao and South Korea. Same people and language but different economic systems.

The good intentions of socialism is not in the least what it pretends to be. It is not the pioneer of a better and finer world, but the spoiler of what thousands of years of civilization have created. It does not build, it destroys.

[abc3643]

1. You don't know much about me and are making assumptions about my beliefs and politics which are rooted in science.
2. You underestimate your intellect, but overestimate your confidence of your assertions. This comes with the territory of being young for many people.

Life will teach you what I cannot. All I want you to do is to be open about the world and all the views that you become aware of. Most of them - conservative, liberal, Christian, Jew, Muslim, whatever - all have some truths to them to learn from.

Also, remember this from Mark Twain:
www.travelandleisure.com/.../mark-twain-quotes-about-travel-life

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

[Kelley1]

@abc3643 I love Mark Twain. Believing in socialism as a superior economic system is not based on science. I am not certain that scientist are good at evaluating the value of various economic systems. Because people change, I don't know if there is a best economic system for all time.

The Tytler Cycle may be the way is. I believe for most of recorded history bondage or rule by kings or the elite was the norm. Occasionally there would be freedom for the people but it doesn't last. However, regardless how long there is freedom it will last longer if the society is based on free enterprise than under socialism. Untimely, regardless of the economic system, a few people will gain control--control they are unwilling to give up regardless of the cost to the people and regardless if those in control are from a socialistic or free enterprise system.

[abc3643]

I never said I believed in socialism as a superior economic system.
That said, in a sense, your body - ever vertebrate organism - is essentially a socialist system. But that's besides the point and would take too much time to discuss.

Tytler Cycle... interesting! I need to look more into this.

[Kelley1]

@abc3643 I can believe my body may be a socialists system because it is better if all the cells are working together for the common good rather than competing against each other. A bee hive is probably also a socialists system because all the bees will, if necessary, sacrifice their lives for the hive. However, humans are selfish so socialism doesn't work.

[abc3643]

Humans are selfish, yes. More than that, humans are short-sighted and that leads to neglecting the solution of problems. Many problems in our world today are due to people actually having the willingness to address them before they became larger problems or because they were too short-sighted.

[Dongie]

@abc3643/ ɓullshit. What proof do you have that conservative men treated their wives horribly, but oh, look out, the big bad feminists are gonna whip our asses. We better let our wives have freedom. Liberal, you have to be able to do better than that.

[KrakenAttackin]

Agreed. Liberals hate America, hate Americans, and hate themselves. Liberals are a serious cancer.

[Dongie]

They need some RedMill backing soda. Disolve'em right up.

[SotiCoto]

As far as I can tell they're all the same and hate each other equally.
Both "wings" are just the same Collectivist Authoritarian garbage. It is just a question whether they say "spank me daddy" to politicians or board directors.

[strateguy632]

because they are bitter, left christianity for the wrong reasons, n try to hide their internal conflicts and bitterness by lashing out. conservatives are "happier" because we dont lie to ourselves that liberal system is better.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Both sides hate each other equally and are both equally verbal about how the other side is wrong and call each other names. Let's not pretend that conservatives are any better here.

[Alex-Snow]

I agree with you!

[Anonymous]

Because conservatives are about improving thier lives , while liberals are about making sure everything is equal. Even if there is not equal effort. Liberals are the equivalent of the old busy body who nose has to be in other people's business. Have you ever met a pleasant busybody?

[purplepoppy]

Are you kidding? Conservatives have nothing to offer but hate. Every hate group is right wing.

[KrakenAttackin]

@purplepoppy. Ah, our resident UK person who is correctly executing he programming. Thank you purple, your response is noted in the Orwellian Ministry of Truth.

[Chazmatazz269]

The left is motivated almost entirely by emotion. They can’t be effective unless they’re harboring intense emotions. That’s also why they tend to favor feelings over facts in most debates.

[CrabCakes11]

I think you got those words switched up. Have you not seen those crazies tearing down the target pride display. Remember when they tried to storm the capital?

[ProbablyClueless]

I've noticed that too... I'm not sure why that is, exactly. But there's an intense vindictiveness about Liberals that I generally haven't seen from Conservatives.

[Billlewis]

Why do you think? Because they know they can't win the argument, they have to lie, cheat and steal.

[meepmeeperton]

Because libs always have their panties in a twist. Conservatives mostly want to be left alone.

[NamerOfStars]

Lack of historical perspective; seventy years ago, it was exactly the other way around. These things are cyclical.

[DrPepper12]

Ridiculous proposition. There is a clear dichotomy between the two when its action vs words. Liberals are mouthy little poodles at times and MAGAs at times seem to have roid rage - fists first. IMHO

[Dongie]

I could say the "MAGA" is responding to constant attacks, 24/7, all the time.

[DrPepper12]

@Dongie from what? Words?

[Dongie]

Were you alive between 2016 and now? You didn't notice the embarrassment y those piles of shit in the 2 houses?

[Dongie]

Nor fukin embarrassment *harassment

[Staximus]

There are a few different reasons. They love pointing the finger, playing the blame game, playing the victim, and think they are morally superior.

[RedInnocent69]

That is definitely not true. Although, sometimes the far-left has more hatred for the centre than the far-right, I feel because they think the centre-left is too pragmatic and therefore ideologically impure.

[jahaims]

Most of their political beliefs are based on feelings instead of facts/statistics

[Anonymous]

because conservatives have what the liberals really want on a spiritual level

when they rebel against God their life ends up in misery

[AviatorTom]

That is a generalization... and probably false.

[NYCQuestions1976]

Far-left liberals, socialists, and progressives are all delusional and insane.

[In_Trance]

Don't fool yourself. It's all the same shit

[Dongie]

That's why so many vote for DJT.

[In_Trance]

Whatever works for ya

[Kelley1]

That is why I will not waste my time voting. It really make no difference.

[Friendlybro79]

Have you watched Fox News? Liberals are the reason for all the worlds problems lol

[AngryCarl]

I don't think that's true at all. Conservatives just feel it more because they are so thin skinned.

[OtterMan68]

really? MAGA accuses the left of being pedophiles who hate our country

[Dongie]

Èpsteins island.

[OtterMan68]

@Dongie Trump's buddy?

[Dongie]

Say you. Several liberals and Democrat politicians on that flight log. That and Biden showering with his, what was she, 7. Yep, and he always feels of the kids as he smells them. Very disturbing.

[Dongie]

They may kind of hate themselves. I know they get nasty quick.

[KrakenAttackin]

Liberals are miserable people by nature, it's one of the qualifications.

[abc3643]

You're kidding, right?

[Asker]

Bruh if conservatives say anything that liberals don't agree with they get called racist, sexist , homophobic etc... if a liberal says something that a conservative disagrees with then they get called dumb or stupid

[abc3643]

Well, that's often because they ARE racist, sexist, and homophobic. Not always, but many are. So, when you get a racist or sexist or homophobic conservative spouting such hateful shit, they're going to get so shit for that. And these conservatives are the kinds who say things like "libtard" - yeah, really adult and pleasant.

Remember this:

1. If you vote for the Republican Party, that doesn't mean you're a racist.
But, if you're a racist, you vote for the Republican Party.

Example: KKK endorsing Trump...


2. If you vote for the Republican Party, that doesn't mean you're sexist.
But, if you're sexist, you vote for the Republican Party.

Example: This GOP Trump voter...
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/_n7IhK9dnnI

3. If you vote for the Republican Party, that doesn't mean you're a homophobe.
But, if you're a homophobe, you vote for the Republican Party.

Example:
Martha-Ann Alito, wife of conservative Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito.
"I want a Sacred Heart of Jesus flag because I have to look across the lagoon at the Pride flag for the next month."
But, really, any Christian conservative is anti-LGBTQ+ ("homophobic" perhaps isn't the right term). This is why they've voted for the GOP for over 4 decades.

Again, though, I am NOT saying that if one is a conservative, then you are racist, sexist, or a homophobe. I AM saying that, if you are one of those, then you vote for the GOP, the conservative party.

[Alex-Snow]

I think it is equal for both sides

[Anonymous]

I think it's the other way around.

[handsomelad70]

It's 50-50, or maybe 60-40 latter.
