You guys keep trying. You'll probably never convince anyone else but eventually you may be able to convince yourselves.

Acting as if television is the primary way to receive information doesn't seem all that reasonable. More people don't watch any TV than watch Fox news.

Then why are you so obsessed with it.

Along these lines, notice how overtly submissive males on these boards receive far less respect than their dominant counterparts...


I haven't noticed that submissive males receive far less respect. Of course, I don't pay them any attention.

Oh. Wait...

Nevermind.
Wait a fucking minute....IMO that is bullshit.
In addition portioning out respect based in part are in whole on the choice of self-idenftification on an alternate lifestyle website is assinine.I assure you I don't walk thru life introducing myself as "slavemike".The decision to show me any less respect based on that nick is follishness at best...

I do not give respect based upon which side of the kneel someone is.. none of you are ever going to be kneeling to me, and there is not one person that posts here that I would kneel to[;)]

Dude, I was just kidding. I didn't mean to be taken seriously. I think the whole concept is silly.

I don't think someone's political opinions are given more or less weight based on their nick or their BDSM affiliation.

Although, to be honest, I haven't gone and checked if the people I think are complete idiots are all of the same persuasion.




slvemike4u -> RE: Please welcome Sanity to the Center! (3/14/2010 9:14:19 PM)

IB,no problem.....perhaps it was just a case of one very argumentative,opinionated guy who spends a shitload of time arguing about political matters...and calls himself slavemike...being a little touchy [:D]
Angelika,I don't do sequels!

"Most Americans"????
You are tapped in to the beliefs of most Americans????
This is hardly validated by your nearly 5000 posts which show that you have no clue what you are talking about let alone the the beliefs of most Americans.

That's good to know.

I've spent many sleepless nights wondering.

Thanks for sharing.

It's all perception, I am sure where he lives he is exposed to far more Right Wing sentiments, and therefore has mistaken the South to be "most Americans", well the South isn't "most Americans", which is why Right Wingers are often touting great thanks that we do not have majority rules in this country, because they know if the majority ruled they would have even less of a voice than they currently enjoy.

"Far Left" gets thrown around here a lot. Seems to mean "anything at all to the left of me," and has no difference from simply "left" other than as emphasis on the disagreement. The people using it have given no apparent thought to "left" vs. "far left," just as they're "center" but have no meaningful concept of "far right" people to the the right of them.

People perceive based on where their thinking lies, not reality. Liberals are going to see lots of conservative posters, conservatives think they're surrounded by liberals. Both are distortions of reality.

When that left/right conflict misperception becomes firmly ingrained, we even see the perception here that the right is now the middle, despite the data showing 35% of people as moderates, as despite the logical problem the one side of the continuum has no extreme edge.

Since I was not posting that as a reply to you, I fail to see why you responded to that post, other than to be snarky because I questioned your holier than thou attitude about your beliefs... whatever.. knock yourself out with your snark as you follow me from thread to thread....

Rather than left and right why don’t people just say majority thought? The majority on any issue is the center…the moderates. That center could be considered right or left by those opposed to this position.

Time is important as well…. 8 years ago the center position on Iraq today would have been considered left or liberal. Yet today it is the center.

It is a waste of time to pigeonhole every thought as liberal or conservative. Sanity’s position on many issues would have been considered the center a few years ago and in the future may be again…yet many here always consider him a right wing fanatic.

There is no doubt I will lean one way and he another on most issues but as often as not the middle…the center… the moderates will agree with his position.

You sort of set yourself up, though.

Also, what I said about male subs is true, by the way. At least look for it a bit, and then get back to me. (I find it's especially apparent when an OP is a male sub.)




slvemike4u -> RE: Please welcome Sanity to the Center! (3/15/2010 8:35:14 PM)

Fuck Silence ,mind if I "get back to"you on that right here and right now?
Oh what the fuck ,lets be honest I don't give a shit if you're interested or not....I'm still going to wiegh in with my opinion.
Any asshole who would spend an apprecialble amount of time around here....that would,despite reading the posts,decide to apportion respect based on the posters nick is rather than the actual quality of his posts is....well an, ASSHOLE.
