Did this conflict with anything I said?

No...

...as long as you're okay with making fun of asylum seekers, gays, Muslims, Africans, and people with autism, go for it. It shows us who you really are.

So you admit that it did not conflict with any of my posts, including then that "it is not Asylum seekers, gays and people with autism that are being made fun of", and yet you claim and assert the exact opposite at the same time. I just love the Claegue.

Because this is the liberal image of the perfect human being.


Yeah it is one of many liberal images. Just like in music and Christianity, there are many subcategories that share a common ground but have massive differences. In its essence "liberalism" is about freedom, but which freedom in which context and how it should be implemented lead to different opinions.

Certain areas of disagreement are:
* Freedom of Speech
* Freedom of the Press
* Should a democracy be able to turn itself into a dictature if the people want it?

In Sweden, Lena Andersson is an intellectual voice for a liberalism that would certainly not be the one Claeyt subscribes to.

Edit: Of course, like in the case of "nationalism" and "role-playing", there are certain movements that want to impose their view upon others by pretending that their movement is the only one that can bear that name.

No, you misunderstand. What I'm saying is that you posted a conservative caricature of a 'model' Liberal that makes fun of Liberals by suggesting that they are gay, and that they help asylum seekers, Muslims, Africans and the Disabled.

I'll ask again.... Why do you think its funny if he's dating a guy with autism? ...or if he's helping asylum seekers from war torn countries?

If I was going to make fun of a 'model' conservative I'd make fun of him being rich, or carrying a gun, or something like that. I'd never include that he was Christian, or strait because it wouldn't make any sense. You're saying that his sexuality and the fact that he helps asylum seekers are personality faults.

For those of you that don't know, autism is a spectral disorder and there are tons of men and women with autism who are married with kids and such. It's actually not that strange. I'd say half of all people with autism actually end up in a relationship at some point in their life.

Do you seriously think that it is the specific points of sexuality and asylum seekers that are being pointed out in that image? You can't see some kind of generalization being never so gently hinted at?

I guess introspection can be harder than one might think.

The funny part is the self-hatred. Specially when a certain prime minister candidate publically stated that she disliked her own Swedish culture and very much prefered foreign culture.

I would like to request that you stop spamming me about your hat. If you didn't want to wear it, you shouldn't have put it on.
