It's not being upset about mere words which is ludicrous, it's being upset over certain mere words which is preposterous. For example, with some it's upsetting to see (or hear) the word "moonbat" however it's perfectly acceptable for them to use the word "Neocon" in the manner which they use it. Think on it for awhile and come up with other examples on your own and you will see that it's not the 'labelling' of groups which is wrong, it's whether the group you label is one you support or reject which makes the labelling wrong or right.

I mean to go bananas over the word "Islamofacist" is really kind of silly, I compare that to going bananas over the word Nazi or Communist.

I concur that there is such a thing as the "Islamofascist" however not every Moslem who disagrees with the western ways and beliefs a fascist. To be uspet by such a word is ridiculous, however to expect a person to support his or her claim that someone is an Islamofascist is reasonable.

Of course the deeds that go unoticed by the Liberal people who are extremely shocked about a mere wording only serves to compound the real issue .

Liberals have the tendency to be politically correct, at least to a point they do. The more liberal a person is seems directly related to how politically correct they are. On the other hand Conservatives may suffer from the same disease of political correctness but only on the opposite end of the spectrum.

It's stupid to argue over a word that refers to a religious sub-culture that wants to bring about the total destruction of Israel , and take over the entire world , instead we should be arguing over the premise of whether this is to be justifiable in terms of humanity , and whether we as free people are going to stand by and allow for it to take place.
|
I understand your intent, it is counterproductive to argue over a word, what is most important is trying to understand where someone is coming from and arguing the salient points of their arguments.

And When someone calls the people that perpatrate these acts by their deserved names these Liberals will get their panties in a bunch , say we're picking on Islam , and say that we are unjust and beastly while the real beasts get a pass every time.

On another forum I read the term "Flavor of the week" and developed a liking to the term. What was meanst by the term is "through-out the past someone always managed to choose a group to be favored and by anyone saying anything which didn't reflect that group in the best of light meant the favored group was being attacked unjustly. There was no room for outrage or misspeaking, whatever was said which was not liked had to be a biased and prejudicial attack upon an innocent people. The premise of the discussion was that the term "Flavor of the week" is still an active idealogy in the hearts and minds of many.
As seen from all the loving responses by obvious Liberals here, It's easy to

What good would it do to play "yes man" to a bunch of conservatives on some other conservative board anyway?
"If everyone is thinking alike, someone isn't thinking." They need to learn who the good guy really is in this and stop way laying the good people on this earth who step up to the line and try to put a stop to the Intolerance , and Death .

It would do no good to simply surround oneself with like thinkers for it limits their ability to think things through properly. There is a problem in the mid-east and it's a serious problem which needs to be rectified and it will take more than just Isreal, the US and the UK to resolve the issues.
