what i have been explaining to you guys forever is that all these viewpoints, moderates included, are an amalgamation of arbitrary nonsense, all without real guiding principles. the right is for small government, except they are not. the left is for personal freedom, except they are not. the moderates are for a random assortment of terrible bull****. of those 3 , none of them are right more than like 10% of the time. and they each have a network to push their BS viewpoints. my views, the correct views, cannot be labeled as any of thiose stupid arbitrary groups because the proper viewpoints happen to be considered extreme right and extreme left, because those politlca positions now are self-contradictory and inconsistent.
moderates are also pussies. none of the current labels that describe a group of viewpoints are worth a ****. 99% of everyone is tremendously far from anything resembling a decent philosophy, except for one glaring excpetion, the george bush foreign policy, which is basically the only correct thing done by any politician in the last 50 years.
I made this point many times when trying to explain red his centrist nonsense. if you have no principles to guide you its just arbitrary nothing and baseless dependent on where the others viewpoints fall. wait, so did you many times come to think of it. nevermind.* *who knew nevermind was two words not one.
of course. what lasalle doesnt seem to get it is that it is pointless to restrict your criticism to one side of the aisle when clearly both sides and the middle are all awful. so a news station that was perceived as neutral is till awful, because neutral is meaningless. the only way to really be neutral would be to just list facts. 1 person killed. fire on block x. politician says X. and even then you would be biased by which facts you chose to report, which events you deemed newsworthy. i think it is really newsworthy when an atheist politician is elected, i think it is a massive development. nobody else cares. i say they are biased against the news that matters. and i am right, because all news is biased relative to some view, and the mainstream view that fox is biased is also biased. so we can worry about biased news until we are blue and it is of no consequence.
It is a stupid point, already shot down many times. No matter where you stand on the political spectrum. . . the extreme ends, center or anywhere on it, one is not precluded from having principles. You don't understand the meaning of the term principle, possibly. The puerile notion you have that a moderate must be a centrist is also absurd. The extremes are narrow bands on the spectrum and the moderate band is broad and extends to right and left of dead center. Moreover, you are about to raise the ridiculous notion that the only way for a moderate to determine his position is to define it as midway between the extremes. It is an erroneous interpretation based on the invalid premise that all moderates are centrists. Let me shoot it down quickly so we may move on.
