I’m really interested to know your background, to better understand your viewpoints. Did you have a perfect childhood? A stable family support system? Do you have a lot of rich friends? What do you detest about democrats?
I have other questions, but I’d like to see if you answer these first.
Same 
I don’t understand how a meritocrat could ever associate himself with Conservatism, which has always promoted lineal inheritance at the expense of personal excellence. A genuine meritocracy would almost certainly abolish such a crude form of thought.
I reserve the right to stop answering questions at any time.
I try not to explicitly associate myself with much of anything.

I did vote for Bush the second time. And I have a “W” sticker on my car. Once he started that horrible and unjust war I just kinda fell for him. I dunno…
It’s related to his “coolness”.
A metaphor for worldliness.
You see superficiality often results in this egocentric and simplistic view of the world.
The republican party often attract thoughtless doers rather than thinkers.
It is a haven for pretentiousness and instinctive symbolisms.
The trappings of the world become, for them, enough. They need not think deeper or doubt what their desires present to them as valuable.
This is why this party attracts religious fundamentalists, thoughtless egomaniacs and greedy self-promoters, all under the guise of realpolitik realism.
Amongst this group, thought is considered inferior to action, almost shameful, and so they are more active than thoughtful.
The motives guiding them and the need urging them onward into constant action is never made conscious but is felt like a truth they can neither express nor define.
Pure emotional instinct.
The Jock versus Nerd dichotomy.
Pride in being thoughtless yet popular due to activity and adherence to primordial laws.
Satyr - when are you going to come out of that shell and say what you’re really thinking?
I’ll never forget your exchange with Big D. Best stuff I ever saw here.
I’m trying to come out of my shell.
Big D?
Dunamis?
He was one of those impressive academic types. All full of knowledge and historical references on philosophy and misconstruing thinknig for talking about another’s thinknig.
Spinoza this and Spinoza that.
He called it “stringent philosophy”.
Like considering yourself an athlete because you know all the stats, the lingo and the teams, and having an opinion on who was the best all-around player.
It was priceless stuff. Well-written, as always, as was your previous post on this thread.
I have no idea of Smears’ politics, nor do I care. But that was a really well-written invective. The same fire as the old days, but so much more effectively controlled. You are always a joy to read.

Primordial laws? If you can find anyplace where I’ve appealed to anything like that I’d like to see it. What kind of activities do you think I partake in?
Close but no cigar pal, that scary guy in your avatar doesn’t scare me!!
What the hell, haven’t you mastered the quotation mechanisms?
You display it with your every post.
This is myfavorite.
So are you or are you not a Republican?
Backpedaling and shewing on your tongue won’t help you now, dude.
Once my cross-hairs go on, they lock on.
Your depths soak my ankles.
You aren’t playing fair.
You’ve become all evasive trying to turn the focus back on me.
We both know you crave positive attention. It’s the negative one that makes you scurry under the toilet seat
I’m not here to speak, but to listen now.
I speak in other threads. with you i want to absorb your spirit and drink from your every brain-drop.
I want to see if the internet persona corresponds to something other than insecure “accidental” revelations.
No, I just want soemthing to challenge my thinking.
you aren’t it, but you will suffice as a test of my analytical abilities.
I want to see if I can read you just using the bullshit you post here.
Consider yourself a puzzle.
I want to find all the pieces and put you together.
If you manage to maintain my interests.
So far your performance is boring me.
That’s it mock me, make me interested.
Have you heard of instinct or the subconscious?
good, we’re now refining our focus.
How do you compensate?
Do you make yourself funny or all nice and sensitive for the girlies?
Your sex fixation, dear boy.
He’s not supposed to scare you.
Scaring you would be counterproductive.
I want you to feel safe and secure and invincible.
I want you to show me your mind because your bullshit has irritated me.
I bet you think of yourself as so intricate and deep that no matter how precise their insights are you escape them by running into those supposed depths.
I need something better than that to reply again. Work on it and come back. I’ll be out of class in 2 1/2 hours.
what a classy guy!
:rimshot:
-Imp
Only for 2 1/2 hours. Then I’m out of class. I’ll be totally tacky.
Work on it?
You’re already boring the shit out of me.
I think you should return to your posturing.
