Just as the expression of bigotry tells us more about the bigots than the objects of their bile, the dipshittery as you so accurately described it actually tells us a lot more about the people who composes such lists, who distribute them and the poor fools who believe them.

It is a list of right wing neuroses, cliches and fears. It reveals that they are horrified by any real separation of Church and State, that they cannot abide the thought of marriage being for all adults who love each other, that the thought of any genuine equality between men and women or blacks and whites is too much for them to contemplate, that sexual freedom for them is only for straights who share their sexual dispositions and so on.

One wonders why they are so threatened by others enjoying the rights and freedoms they insist on for themselves. One wonders why they have so much invested in keeping women people of colour and queers in 'their place'. Why are they so insecure that any kind of difference, that natural human diversity is a threat to their equilibrium?

Your own list... They, they, they. You are possibly the worst one here like that

I wonder why we have waited this long.
{I have been wondering for a long time, and continue to wonder.}

Another question could be, what will it take for every country that is against ISIS, to do what it takes to deal with them?

Can anyone tell us what we are waiting for?

I have my own idea's on what it will "take", use your imagination.

Then you expanded your list to the entire "right wing" when you added, "It is a list of right wing neuroses, cliches and fears..."

Sorry wrong again.

"Right wing" in the sentence you quoted is an adjective describing the type of "neuroses, cliches and fears" I am referring to. It doesn't expand anything - quite the opposite. It specifies that the type of neuroses, cliches and fears referred to are the right wing variety and eliminates all other varieties.

I like the way you cut that quote and ignored her advice too.
Sanity,were I you(other than slitting my wrists and soaking in a tub of hot water) I wouldn't so casually dismiss the advice of others.
It's painfully obvious that you have issues,perhaps if you asked for help,nicely,people would step forward and lend a helping hand,there is no need for you to walk through life all confused and stupid.
Help is available

"Q: Can the United States really carry through on a pledge to “degrade and defeat” the Islamic State through its bombing campaign?

A: It has to be done, obviously, but it’s not sufficient.

no, no one is suggesting that all liberals tow the party line as if every political persuasion was monolithic. people are on the whole, eclectic.

the simple answer then is you are not so liberal across the board as you think...

The USA is always taking the lead against Islamists such as the Taliban, al-Qaeda, Boko Haram and ISIS etc
Muslims need to take responsibility for their medieval Jihadi problem
Own it
Put together a serious world wide organization of Muslims to take on that role instead
Quick strike forces, large armies, law enforcement, and a very public campaign to shame and severely isolate any demented asshole who insists on using bloodthirsty Koranic verses for anything other than toilet paper
Only then can Islam rightfully be referred to as "the religion of peace"
