LIBERALS, this is the ideology you vote for.

narcissistic,
bigoted,
and absolute contempt for those "other people".
at the same time they claim to be the compassionate ones, while separating us into groups of "special people", who need their "help".
help from the better people, the smart people.
help from the people who have never lived a day in poverty in their lives.
help from the people who need to be needed.

but they shouldn't be forced to live in the misery they so compassionately bestowed upon us.
no,
they are above those people.
take your "help", and shove it.

What I get from the video is that she want's no stop and frisk in Manhattan. But she doesn't care about other cities in New York? I couldn't really understand her because the audio was messed up for me.

I swear I thought she was setting up for a punchline. This is the kind of people I'd like to trade places with for about a year, just to see if it might temper their superior attitude a little....

I only understood that she said something so stupid that host couldn't believe she wasn't joking. What did she said?

reply to post by bjax9er

At first I though she was being sarcastic too. She's definitely a prime example of the fear based system we live under today.

The "War (to promote) Terror" is working.

Honesty, I think I am so dumb or out of touch, that I didn't know there were people like here in the world.

Shame on me.

This is a first but I'm speechless...
Did they hire her to call in and say that?
What kind of radio show is that?
Could it be they are trying to cater to their base listeners?

Political trolling bait thread

This phone call sounds extremely staged.....

I am a liberal and, no, that is not the ideology I vote for nor is it anywhere near indicative of my mind set.

This seems to be a case of a faux liberal. They are common and have been around for a very long time, particularly in the upper classes of New York. Very, very rich people who don't have any natural or real liberal leanings, but who toss a few bucks at a few charities to seek to claim the "liberal" label for when such labels might benefit them.

Representing this as liberal ideology is about as sincere as if I were to post a Fred Phelps video and proclaim that he is touting typical Conservative ideology.

Actually, she wants stop and frisk to remain in Manhattan where she is, because it makes her feel safer, but she doesn't care if it stops other places. She really likes being stopped and frisked, apparently.

Something about it increasing property values.

Exactly, I agree with Heff. There are a lot of those faux liberals, and they like to use intelligence as a class barrier, and look down on the poor and everything like that. It is sadly heavily prevalent. I have been around them at my liberal arts college...

And I would entirely expect them to let dumb, poor people starve before they let them use up the limited resources left behind after the economic crisis.

As my main philosophy is one of humanitarianism and caring for all people in the human race, I find myself to be a solid centrist at the moment.

I'm sure that the traditional Democratic movement is alive and well somewhere, just not in most places. So it's kind of like... well, can we get the Republican party to start improving the economy as well as finding positive solutions for things like immigration, gays, legalization, the poor and such?

Hopefully, if other good people with similar values to me get disgusted by the current liberal movement, then more good people will join the Republican ranks, and add positivism to it. That's kind of where I am looking at the moment.

Some kind of small business, pro-gay, pro-hispanic, pro-black, pro-people, movement on the political right, as it realizes it has to change to keep up with the times, and accept their new members?

She said she wanted to stop stop and frisk, just not in her neighborhood, she wanted it to remain in her neighborhood.

reply to post by darkbake

She really likes being stopped and frisked, apparently.

Her chances of being stopped and frisked is quite slim due to what she presumably looks like and where she lives.

reply to post by WaterBottle


Right, from what she said, the only logical conclusion I can make is that stop-and-frisk is a blatantly racist and classist program meant to (unconstitutionally) search the poor and the colored folk that dare venture onto Manhattan itself, which is apparently only for rich, white liberals.

So this is actually an example of how the white liberal atheist movement or whatever is extremely classist and racist. They want to live in their protected city, where the lower classes and colored folk are kept out...

Somewhat similar to the Berlin Wall situation, by the way, which was built to keep West Germans (considered fascist) out of East Berlin considered more socialist).

Talk about political trolling. One caller on a talk show says something ridiculous and you claim this represents the ideology of all liberals.

The difference between conservatives and liberals -- at ATS anyway -- is that liberals don't start these kind of BS threads. Liberals could find any number of doozy phone calls into conservative shows, make a youtube clip of it, and claim it represent the ideology that all conservatives vote for. But we don't. So why do conservatives do it ad nauseam? Seems they just like to try to make false claims about all liberals -- there's no other way to explain it.

In addition, I don't believe the picture on the video is the caller, but rather is (I think) some woman who is running for Mayor of NYC, which makes this a dishonest video as well, as it is trying to associate this candidate with what this caller on the talk show said -- if it is even a real call into a real radio station. Looking at the title of the video, it does indeed say the supposed caller is Quinn's base.

No surprise there: a conservative ATSer creating a dishonest thread using a dishonest video. Well played, TROLL.

I find that I'd have to question your motives for posting this. Do you really think this woman (and anyone she could possibly vote for) is really concerned with what liberalism really is?

This whole "upper class liberal elite" thing makes little sense to me. If anything, the suspects in question seem to follow some radically warped variant of noblesse oblige, which of course was a foundational concept within Tory/One-nation conservatism.

reply to post by bjax9er
What's to say about a person like this, she is her own best advocate and Quinn's apparently.

What I like about this thread the most is the way the lib's are scrambling to defend there base from this person as if she is not of there kind, a "faux liberal" I think is the way it was put. Careful you are starting to sound just like her..........like minded people.

Lumping all liberals in to one big group isn't going to help anything. It's the same as saying that all conservatives agree with everything Michele Bachman and Rush Limbaugh say. It's just untrue and devicive.

reply to post by Hefficide


I truly believe that you may be a John F. Kennedy Liberal where as the people in office today are exactly what you describe...faux liberals....great distinction...they want to talk the talk...that's as far as it will go...

I never said all liberals have this ideology.
I said you vote for it.

You have to be absolutely mad to think the way this woman does.

The progressive politicians are worse than this woman.
They do have this ideology.
They just don't say it aloud.

Lets take obamacare for example.
You the people must abide by the law, it's for the good of the people.
But we the smart people, who know what's best for you, we shouldn't have to live with what we designated for people.

I could make a thread about elite republican ideology, what's the point?
They surrender to the progressives every chance they get.

French republicans.
