Forum Post: e-mail from a conservative:

For those that don't know about history ... Here is a condensed version:

Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer and would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter.

The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer and the invention of the wheel. The wheel was invented to get man to the beer.These were the foundation of modern civilization and together were the catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups:

1 . Liberals

  1. Conservatives.

Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning of agriculture.Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum canwere invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented, they just stayed close to the brewery. That's how villages were formed.

Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to BBQ at night while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of what is known as the Conservative movement...

Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned to live off the conservatives by showing up for the nightly BBQ's and doing the sewing, fetching, and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the Liberal movement.

Some of these liberal men eventually evolved into women. They became known as girlie-men.Some noteworthy liberal achievements include the domestication of cats, the invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the concept of Democratic voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that conservatives provided.

Over the years conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most powerful land animal on earth, the elephant. Liberals are symbolized by the jackass for obvious reasons.

Modern liberals like imported beer (with lime added), but most prefer white wine or imported bottled water. They eat raw fish

but like their beef well done. Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard liberal fare.. Another interesting evolutionary side note: most of their women have higher testosterone levels than their men. Most social workers,personal injury attorneys, trust-funders, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood and group therapists are liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule because it wasn't fair to make the pitcher also bat.

Conservatives drink domestic beer, mostly Bud, Coors or Miller. They eat red meat and still provide for their women. They are big game hunters, rodeo cowboys,lumberjacks, construction workers, firemen, medical doctors, police officers, engineers, corporate executives, athletes, members of the military, airline pilots and generally anyone who works productively.

Conservatives who own companies hire other conservatives who want to work for a living.

Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the producers and decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe Europeans are more enlightened than Americans. That is why most of the liberals remained in Europe when conservatives were coming to America . They crept in after the Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying to get more for nothing for people who wouldn't work.

Here ends today's lesson in world history:

It should be noted that a Liberal may have a momentary urge to angrily respond to the above before forwarding it.

A Conservative will simply laugh and be so convinced of the truth of this history that it will be forwarded immediately to other Conservatives and to some Liberals just to piss them off.

And there you have it.... Let your next action reveal your true self.....I just did and now I'm going to turn the venison on the grill.

I'm an artist. I like to draw and take photos. I'm into fashion, design, and architecture. I love the UK, south America, soccer, and surfing. I love different kinds of food. Infact I ate a crepe for breakfast, pho for lunch, and sushi for dinner. I shop at Trader Joes and Wholefoods. I'm pro-choice, and I voted for Barack Obama...

All that and at the same time, I shoot guns, and eat red meat. I've killed deer. i'm for the legalization of marijuana, I drive a muscle car, I drink whiskey. I like to watch ultimate fighting. I listen to Hank Williams (Sr!) right after listening to Led Zeppelin, but before I listen to some Unknown Mortal Orchestra. I love chicks and tits, and I ride motorcycles.

Who the fuck am I? Definitely not the definition of a liberal, and sure as hell not the definition of a conservative. Fuck Labels

you're an oxymoron.

[-] 1 points by sampson (34) 12 years ago

only if you live by one label or the other... I look at it as more of a collaboration. It's diversity... I believe in true freedom.

[-] 4 points by sampson (34) 12 years ago

People that identify themselves to 1 of 2 labels that the media made up need to open their eyes, and ears, and see and listen to the world around them

Liberals produce little or nothing. . . . They crept in after the Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying to get more for nothing for people who wouldn't work.

so - wait - did you just say liberals were the ones at MFGlobal, who fucked up producing little or nothing, and then lost 1.2 billion?

I mean, because based on what I see here, you have succinctly argued in favor of regulating the banking/investment industry.

I happen to agree.

[-] 3 points by GlobalSucks (87) 12 years ago

Have you ever noticed how it is the conservatives that are the gutless ones that don't stand up for themselves. They hate anybody that does. OWS is an example

I really don't think it was conservatives that came to America first. They would have been too gutless to go against the Government and create change. Besides that there was no Fox news or other right wing media back then to tell them what to do or think, so they had no clue what to think. They could not get past doing what the government expected them to do. And they were grateful and thankful for the deception and oppression that provided for them

[-] 1 points by ZenDogTroll (13032) from South Burlington, VT 12 years ago

yeah-ya.

I keep saying:

George Washington was a Liberal

Emancipation was a Liberal Policy

and Jesus

was a Liberal

and a Political Dissident

but I think it's all a bit over their head

[-] 3 points by GlobalSucks (87) 12 years ago

I think it is just plain stupid and made up by a bigot that really is clueless about liberals and conservatives.

I didn't read the whole thing. I like fiction but not bigoted stupidity

To KofAll's conservative friend*:

First, I would like to comment you on your creative fiction, an art form generally not associated with conservatives. Faulkner, Tolstoy, Kafka, Tennessee Williams, Harper Lee, Hemingway, Dostoevsky, Joyce, ah what the heck, no meaningful writer would claim conservatism. You bucked the trend.

Anyway, claiming historical knowledge can be a very precarious undertaking, sometimes asserting claims you wish not. For example, to claim superiority throughout history opens you to assault as to why America is such a mess. The argument takes the flavor of Epicurus' ontological argument for God's existence:

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”

Just substitute conservative for God, then ask, if conservatives are God-like, why is America in such a mess? Surely, you are not to argue that the inferior liberals (and independents, like me) thwarted your divine power, are you? Moreover, why can't conservatives convince others of their greatness? The poet Shelley asked the same of God: If God exist, why is the world not convinced? No email?

I apologize for the introduction of God but I could not find another parallel more worthy of a conservative.

It was an e-mail a conservative friend sent me.

I am a progressive lib, but I thought it would make for interesting confab fodder here...

[-] 1 points by infonomics (393) 12 years ago

As I clarified above, my secretary regrets the error.

So, basically, conservatives are the less evolved form of Chuck Norris? Because I think I'd be OK with one of Norrissian descent leading the nation. Just sayin'. We'd never need a military or police again, and that tax money could be pent somewhere else.

Thank you, K for so clearly explaining the conservative world view.

[-] 1 points by KofAII (61) from Muenster, TX 12 years ago

Thank my conservative neighbor for bearing his true stripes so boldly.

[-] 1 points by TheTrollSlayer (347) from Kingsport, TN 12 years ago

LOL what a joke. Nice story you made up because you dont like liberals. Just like the conservative leadership, defending everything with bullsh*t stories and half truths. I declare thee one dumb troll.

[-] 1 points by KofAII (61) from Muenster, TX 12 years ago

It isn't "my" piece. A conservative friend sent it to me, and I thought it would make interest confab fodder, here...if only as something to laugh at.

[-] 1 points by TheTrollSlayer (347) from Kingsport, TN 12 years ago

My apologies, been having fun with trolls, sry bout that

while the libs just outright lie.

So conservatives are belligerent abusive drunks?

The real changes in humanity is more closely related to the use of mind altering drugs that allowed them to see the world in different ways.

As for the list of careers you mentioned above there are a couple that I know people in these professions. I know loggers that are meth freaks, lawyers, doctors, and heart surgery nurses who are regular marijuana users. I once knew a sheriff that sold drugs in a small town.

It appears that your post is satirical to some degree but let's keep the facts straight. Alcohol was a rather late invention to humanity. I think hemp and opium has been around a lot longer than beer and wine.

[-] 1 points by richardkentgates (3269) 12 years ago

don't buy into the party line bait. they are trying to divide this movement. OWS has made it clear many times in many ways that this is not about party politics. it's about taking our gov back from the banks.

[-] 0 points by fandango (241) 12 years ago

the egyptians had beer, they didn't have opium or pot.

This is some stupid high school "my team is better than your team" bullshit...

[-] 1 points by thepistolet (28) 12 years ago

My favorite part of the story is where the early society is entirely made up of men with no women at all. (It sounds like most histories.) An interesting variation here is that women eventually appear after some of the liberal men evolve into women. I guess that's just as good as being made out of a man's rib.

[-] 1 points by ARod1993 (2420) 12 years ago

I'm assuming that this is satire. If not, then God damn...

History has not even begun yet. It is still only pre-history.

[-] 0 points by necropaulis (491) 12 years ago

No history is in the past. You can't have a pre past. That would be the present or the future.

[-] 1 points by Redsuperficiality (96) 12 years ago

So therefore you can have a pre-past. There is also prehistory. It took humanity a long time before it could actually tell itself a story about itself.

[-] 0 points by fandango (241) 12 years ago

funny and accurate.

repost. Not a fan of venison. Elk, on the other hand, that shit is like beef 10,000

[-] 1 points by ZenDogTroll (13032) from South Burlington, VT 12 years ago

ah, so you just don't support the Occupy Movement at all. Got it.

I was wondering where all of your hostility was coming from.

[-] 0 points by necropaulis (491) 12 years ago

No. What this guy posted was already posted. This post has nothing to do with support. It's called a joke, man. Lighten up. And elk still rocks
