YOU CAN'T REASON WITH CRAZY

One of the bloggers at GayPatriot has realized what I did not long ago about engaging Fundamentalist Leftists in debate:

I’ve realized now that it makes no sense to engage these people. They’ll frequent conservative blogs, chiming in as often as their free time allows, but pay little heed to our arguments. They have a set view of the world which even reality cannot correct. These are the type of people who will claim up and down that Obama never said this or never said that, and when provided video or a transcript of the Democrat saying just this or just that will hold forth that he misspoke.

GayPatriot has always been waaaay more open to engaging these people in a calm, polite manner than I ever have been able to. But there comes a time.... and I guess it came for him.

...when those with such an attitude publicly demonize the GOP, all they do is flaunt their ignorance, ironically in an attempt to show their intellectual (and moral) superiority to the rest of us. Or to cement kinship with their fellow leftists, by denouncing the devil of their shared faith.

They are arguing from faith in an emotional fundamentalist religion. Make no mistake. I was once a cult member of that religion and I know all about it. It makes no sense to engage mindless zombies that can't say anything but "chaaaaange....I need chaaaaange," while they stumble towards you with their oh-so-kind, caring hands grasping for your throat.

Better to turn ones attention elsewhere and stop wasting your breath. Independents and old school Democrats have by and large retained rational thought. The majority of Americans have not lost their minds and what's more, they are beginning to wake up to the nightmare of our country's destruction.
