		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Sodomy is part and parcel to ancient and modern Arab
culture.&quot;
 
Sodomy occurs in every culture; do you have extensive experience of Arab culture, and discovered for yourself that sodomy is unusually widespread?  Do you consider sodomy a particularly damning indictment of a country?  

Not sure what your obsession with sodomy is about, but last I checked, it seemed more widespread in the  U.S., where gay marriage is legal in many states, and where even that conservative bastion West Point performed a gay marriage.
 
&quot;Was that Arabic I saw in your earlier post?&quot;
 
Yes, it was.  Why do you ask?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Now there are too many to list? I&#039;m just pointing
out your method of argument construction.&quot;

Actually, you&#039;re not.  You&#039;re asking an irrelevant question.  There was never a reason to list any of the constituent elements: the original argument was that the Philippine Insurrection was not a defensive war, and the relevant information there was not the religion of the insurgents, but the way in which the conflict began - which had nothing at all to do with the Moros.  As I pointed out in the last post, the Moros were part of the opposition we encountered later in the war after we&#039;d defeated the largely Catholic opposition under Aguinaldo. You were attempting to portray the lack of some sort of a list as a flaw or sign of bias in an argument that did not call for or require the enumeration of the various insurgent groups.  If you&#039;re going to critique someone&#039;s argument construction, you first have to follow their argument.

&quot;You said you are not muslim so that leaves the &quot;Progressive&quot; label for you.&quot;
 
I must be one of the two, eh?  Is that an example of your argument construction?

&quot;Your buddies, when not raping little girls,
always fall back on sodomy.&quot;
 
I don&#039;t know what kind of company &lt;i&gt;you&lt;/i&gt; keep, but none of my Muslim friends do either, to the best of my knowledge.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You&#039;re not making any kind of sense here.  I&#039;ve made no effort to enumerate all of the various Filipino groups we fought over the course of the Insurrection, nor was there any reason to do so.  

 
The war began as a conflict primarily between the U.S. and Aguinaldo&#039;s army; we came into conflict with the Moros only as we defeated other Filipino groups and extended our operations further into territory traditionally populated by Muslims.  It&#039;s not clear what sort of significance you attach to that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Actually, if you make an accusation or characterization, it&#039;s yours to support.  
 
So far, your argument appears to be that some people you have identified as &#039;leftists&#039; have made arguments you contend are similar to mine, therefore my posts comprise &#039;leftist dogma.&#039;  Among the truck-sized gaps in this logic are your unsupported assumptions that the individuals in question are, in fact, &#039;leftist;&#039; that the arguments in question are integral to and characteristic of their &#039;leftists&#039; ideology, rather than being independent or unrelated opinions.  If Karl Marx noted that the sun rises in the East and sets in the West, that does not thereby become &#039;leftist dogma.&#039;  Note also that pointing out flaws in a &#039;rightist&#039; position is not inherently &#039;leftist,&#039; much less dogma; it&#039;s merely sound criticism.  Finally, you&#039;ve asserted, not demonstrated, that there is substantive underlying congruence between my worldview and that of these &#039;leftists.&#039;  
 
As for my alleged &#039;sensitivity,&#039; it&#039;s a fairly typical human defense mechanism to accuse another of being overly sensitive when one has committed a gaffe,  It&#039;s a great deal easier and more face-saving than simply owning up to one&#039;s error in judgment, taking responsibility, and moving on.  I didn&#039;t expect that of you; you didn&#039;t disappoint; you may considered yourself relieved of the need to further rationalize.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;If there is a particular statement you are seeking clarification for, quote it directly. &quot;

The implications of your statements include the idea that one can support the belief that all humans are of one race yet at the same time be &quot;classified like insects&quot; and furthermore you stated that this is dehumanizing&quot; without requiring any theory that humans are of more than a single race.

Clear that up without waffling.

Do you mean to say that nationalists classify other humans as literal insects, or simply other &quot;dehumanized&quot; species of life? They dehumanize them to the extent that they have nothing in common with humanity therefore as a nationalist I&#039;m not a racist because I consider them, these other &quot;dehumanized humans,&quot; to be 100% distinct from humanity?

Can you harmonize that?

&quot;Since we&#039;ve already agreed that there are bases for classifying others other than race, it&#039;s hard to see what even your logical underpinning is for this comment.&quot;



It goes back to the idea that nationalists can be partisan and loyal to their nation because of culture and ideas, not because they dehumanize people who want to destroy their nation. Nationalism can and often is identical to patriotism. Because the nation can also be the patria.


There are legitimate motives for nationalism.


That&#039;s the point. You want to delegitimize all nationalism or patriotism to one&#039;s nation.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Please explain how a human can be from the same race that I am a member of, but somehow these &quot;others&quot; are then classified like insects?&quot;
 
If there is a particular statement you are seeking clarification for, quote it directly.  
 
Meanwhile, I&#039;ll note that noting that someone treats other humans like insects would indicate that that individual was dehumanizing his targets.  There&#039;s no racial implication in that.   

&quot;Aren&#039;t insects classified in to species and other groupings?&quot;
 
They also have six legs and exoskeletons.  
 
&quot;The person who believes they can or should classify others like insects is obviously a racist or worse.&quot;
 
Since we&#039;ve already agreed that there are bases for classifying others other than race, it&#039;s hard to see what even your logical underpinning is for this comment.  Perhaps if you laid it out in a syllogism, we could examine the premises and find out where the disagreement &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; lies. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Precision in language and consistency of thought is not a characteristic of a particular political perspective.&quot;

I agree with the above quote. The problem is that your pretext or justification of imposing &quot;precision&quot; is really about imposing dogmas. And some times perhaps it&#039;s about defending your own personal narrow-mindedness, but it&#039;s not always easy to tell which from here.

&quot;Nor is there anything particularly &#039;leftist&#039; in my point of view; you&#039;ve apparently begun to believe your own informal fallacies.&quot;



Your blindness to your own biases doesn&#039;t falsify my suggestions.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;2b is certainly inconsistent with every use you&#039;ve made until now.&quot;

Words aren&#039;t as rigid as you think they are. There are certainly limits but if one is to learn new ideas one must be open to them. Something being new to you doesn&#039;t make it wrong.

&quot;It&#039;s best if you don&#039;t call folks &#039;dummies&#039; when you can&#039;t manage to keep your own comments consistent.&quot;



To be consistent with your standards I must stick to leftist dogmas. I already told you that my thinking does exceed those rigid standards. We&#039;ve been through this before.


My comments are not &quot;consistent&#039; in that I don&#039;t merely repeat talking points. My comments do harmonize. That&#039;s what you should look for unless you see yourself as a member of the thought police.]]></description>
