What makes a person turn into a liberal?

Answer 1

socialist brainwashing and lots of gay sex

Answer 2

mental disease?

I am a "left leaning" moderate who generally votes for Republicans and will occasionally vote for a Democrat if there is no other reasonable candidate.

For example, I will probably vote for a Democrat over a Communist. Usually anyway, but, the thought of the pro-slavery Democratic party still being in existence makes me literally sick to my stomach so I tend to stay away from voting for Democrats.

If just thinking of the democratic party makes me sick I wonder what kinds of people can support a party that is so historically oppressive of minorities and spouts the exact same rhetoric against Bush and Iraq that the spouted against Lincoln and the Civil War, both wars to relieve the oppression of people of color.

PS: Richard Nixon, the liberal Republican who pulled out on 'Nam, cut a trade deal with Communist China, appeared on Laugh-In (SNL for the sixties) and made Elvis Presley a Federal Agent so he could work with the Feds against drugs in the entertainment industry? Richard Nixon made someone a Liberal?

Answer 3

It's the easy way out. They have others doing their thinking, like Oprah, "Hanoi" Jane, Alec Baldwin, and others of thir ilk.

Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton have to keep their own people oppressed otherwise they wouldn't be needed. So they preach hate and liberalism in it's ugliest form

They think discriminating against other cultures a cool, and necessary thing to do.

Answer 4

The same thing that makes them turn into any other kind of mental patient. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Answer 6

I use to be a Conservative, I would watch Rush on TV as a teen with my Grandmother. "Strong Republican" Then one day I realized the party she supported was not the party she was apart of for so many years...

I saw the hypocrisy. Calling them selves Moral majority, Christian coalition and denouncing every body else's wrongs. Then going out and doing the same wrongs.

I don't agree with abortion or homosexuality but as a liberal its ok not to like it as long as you don't take away somelse's rights.

I saw the Liberals working for Main Street not Wall Street.

Rush. Drug users should go to jail.... Rush. I have an addiction its a sickness its nothing I can help on my own..

Things like this turned me Liberal and proud of it!!

Answer 7

Hatred of the successful, brainwashing in liberal public schools and campuses, and a healthy dose of liberal propaganda from moveon.org, daily kos, and the like.

Answer 8

When we accept the mythology that hard work will make us wealthy just like the ruling elite we embrace wannabeism. We want to be like the wealthy. We want to support the rich ruling elite and the powerful, not because it is in our own best interest, rather, because we want to be like them. Perhaps, the thinking goes, if Ms. Mornin only had five jobs instead of just three, she could join the rich club alongside the Bushs, Kennedys, Kerrys, Guilianis, Saudis, etc., of the world. While the working class is duped into struggling to be like the rich, power is passed on from generation to generation via inherited wealth. Sons are given access to the best schools, given companies to play with, bailed out when misdeeds are committed and transgressions expunged. Being wealthy means never having to take responsibility. Being part of the elite means never having to say you're sorry. Being born into wealth means never having to do either.

Answer 9

A person's environment

Family, education/schooling, work, tv

Answer 10

It's usually the other way around. As people become more responsible with age, they generally become more conservative.

Answer 11

The fall of Communism:
They all went into the closet and came out "liberals"
