It's the same pattern I constantly see with Randian reactionaries. They have an irrational, emotional hatred of some target and manufacture dozens of flimsy reasons to discredit them. Baseless echo chamber talking points. Political urban legends. At best, swearing by obviously biased hit pieces.
All of these points don't hold up to 2 seconds of scrutiny, but it takes twenty times the effort to dissect them and construct a rebuttal than it does for them to spew more nonsense. They brush aside any logic or relevant experience to the contrary and come up with more warped cherry picked nonsense to wear down the opposition, because their grand standing for a John Galt image is more emotionally satisfying to vicarious idiots than the frazzled activist of public workers trying their best to improve lives in this complex world.
It's like trying to argue with creationists or truthers. You will never win. Just look at this blackwater turd. He's going to continue insisting that a magazine article trumps your decade of experience to the contrary, just like truthers think they know better than eye witness first responders, engineers, and demolition experts.
I think what really separates conservatives from progressives is that conservatives believe the only way to elevate yourself is to keep lots of people beneath you. Life is a zero sum game and the idea of marginal dollar value is a commie plot. What good would Fortindumb's IT position be if there weren't any inferiors to sneer at? |
