    Oh, apologies. The study didn't specify what percentage of "woke independents" this relates to.

    Do you like having the weekends off work to spend with your family? You have those because of radicals.
    The weekend, brought to you by... God?
    Do you like having the work week limited on average to ~40 hours? You have that because of radicals.
    You are saying this as if i said 'No change, Ever'.
    Do you like being able to vote for your government? You have that because of radicals.
    Yes, But I Still have the right to vote for my representatives because Conservatives told the Communists to fuck off.
    Do you like being able to plead your case in a court of law? You have that because of radicals.
    Habeas corpus is Latin
    If conservatives ran everything with no pressure from radicals you'd still be bowing to the british king and living and dying at his whim.
    Kinda doubt that - Not an american see.

    You know that there literally are people that say that western society is garbage that needs to go? - That's not a fucking 'meme' those retards exist.
    There's a reason why humanity's social connectivity is increasing, why technology is continuing to annihilate time and space between us, why more human beings of different stripes and persuasions come out and have their voices heard, and it isn't because of some 'liberal progressive' agenda, it's just the realization of human rights and dignity.
    Stick to your techno utopia - It's not like people said the same thing when they started printing books.
    You ascribe to a ideology that is driven by fear. Imprinted in all of your posts is your utter insecurity and vulnerability to the realization that you are inexorably apart of a system that is much bigger than yourself.
    Yes, Conservatives are 'Driven' - ...
    You may want to give that a once over.

    I have never seen a political ideology ever that advocated change for change's sake.

    Resistance to change for resistance to change's sake though, that's frequently the fundamental motivator of conservatives.

    I think to counter this, no matter what I see on The Onion feed, I am going to take 100% of it as fact, no matter what they say.

    Just to get you started - the Sabbath is only one day. We didn't get a two day weekend until the 20th Century. I'll leave you to your research now...

    Umm...provide a negative role model for parental figures to point to? So that future generations know what textbook sociopaths and real-life comic book villains are like.

    To be fair, Trump was a Democrat from New York.

    Come to think of it, Lincoln was a liberal in the most literal meaning of the word ever.

    I mean for his entire political career, Lincoln was a liberal from Chicago.

    Trump is a Republican from New York, who used to be a Democrat.

    Having Saturday and Sunday off came as an idea during the industrial revolution, and made its way around the world during that time. The basis for WHAT DAYS to put those days off on may have come from a fiction book, but before that people worked Saturdays and Sundays because religious folks aren't very good about following their own scripture.

    You are saying this as if i said 'No change, Ever'.
    You certainly seem to think positive change is just change for change's sake, when in reality it's just any change you disagree with.

    Yes, But I Still have the right to vote for my representatives because Conservatives told the Communists to fuck off.
    If you're in China or the USSR sure. But those places only got the idea for Democracy from countries that already had it. Democracy was original a rejection of far right ideology, which at the time was support for power by the rich royalty

    Habeas corpus is Latin
    Yes, clearly having a fair trial by your peers with required evidence was invented during the Roman empire, and it has nothing to do with the fact that Latin was used in legal terminology because of later philosophers who invented the actual systems of justice we use today.

    Oh wait... that's EXACTLY what it is.

    Kinda doubt that - Not an american see.
    You'd still be bowing to a king.

    All progress in society originated from one or a small number of crazy guys just having a radical idea, and pushing that idea til it spread. If there were no radical ideas, I'd be thrashing you with a stick instead of thrashing you with words over a digital media.

    I've noticed that lately they've been adopting this tactic with any thread they essentially have no chance of making any headway in. Even in an imaginary sense.

    Either that, or turn up and try to get the thread to derail with a lot of flaming and banned topics so it gets locked.
    They need their safe space.
