Why So Many Conservatives Accept the WC or Just Don't Care

[Charles Collins]

Why do you think conservatives are more logical?

One of the most intelligent persons that I have ever known told me so almost 50-years ago. And, since then, I have found from my own experiences that it is true (in general).

Edit:  By the way, this person was a conservative (politically speaking). However, this person most definitely didn’t accept the word of authorities just because they were in that position. (It would have to make sense before it was accepted.)

You do, of course, realise how illogical this answer is?
Unless the logic was to avoid the point I made about how conservative folks tend to blindly accept authority.

I made an addendum to that post while you were responding. And why do you think the first response is illogical?

A simplified version of our exchange:

Question: What makes you think conservatives are more logical?

Answer: Because someone told me so.

Your answer, whatever way you look at it, is purely subjective. There is no element of your answer that is not subjective.
Logic is not subjective.
Therefore, your answer to my question is illogical.

Now that's logic!

Here's a little questionnaire to emphasise my point about conservatives and how they represent the authority in question.

1) In 1963 are the FBI to be considered conservative or liberal?
2) In 1963 are the DPD to be considered conservative or liberal?
3) In 1964 is the Warren Commision to be considered conservative or liberal?

If the answer to the all above questions is "conservative" even you must recognise a certain pattern is emerging.

I believe that you left out the second part of my answer. Your “simplification” is incomplete and dishonest.

If you cannot answer the question logically just say so. Don’t pull the crap that you just tried. It makes you look ridiculous.

1) By necessity a "simplification" is incomplete.
2) The simplification I presented does include the second part of your answer.
3) I did answer your question logically.
4) It's you who looks ridiculous, crying like a baby because you don't like what you hear.

PS: You didn't answer the questionnaire.

Are conservatives more logical than liberals?

Just ask this question - Can a man get pregnant?

What are conservatives saying on this issue and what are liberals saying?

“Floyd caused the police confrontation in the first place” apparently by being black. Lethal force was in no way justified.
