Well, since communists don't want others imposing their ideologies on them while wanting to impose communism on others, I'd say communists are by definition guilty of hypocrisy. That can't said for everyone else since not all ideologies are imposed on others, you know, like us libertarians.

But you want to severely limit the powers and extent of the government, meaning you want to impose your ideology on others.

That's like saying my desire to be free from slavery or involuntary servitude is an imposition on those who seek to enslave me.

If you want big government running your life, feel free to pay for it. Just don't make the rest of us join in your endeavor.

Well that is rather the problem isn't it? You want a smaller government, and I want a bigger one. As long as we live in the same country, someone is going to end up imposing their views on someone else. Claiming that you don't wish to do so is hypocritical. I will make no such claim.

So you admit hypocrisy since you do want to impose your ideology on me but don't want me imposing my ideology on you? I have no desire to impose freedom on you, just freedom from you imposing your ideology on me.

*waits for Fez to come say how good Franco was*


Well the left has always been more stupid and hypocritical then the right.

I'll remember that as I'm choking on fumes from industries using their own environmental standards.

But seriously, that hardly qualifies as hypocricy. Communists don't object to other ideologies being imposed - only all those other incorrect ideologies.

I'd like to see how, say, MtG is a hypocrite. Or, for that matter, how I'm a hypocrite. Prove that conservatives are universally hypocrites and I'll believe you.

it's obvious. he, like most liberals, has fallen victim to the same disease that most conservatives suffer from. it's a horrid disease, which eats away at the intellectual facilities of an individual, reducing heretofore logical and understandable speech into mind-numbing spittle-covered rhetoric. blindly assuming generalizations about the other side.
