More Outrage - Yet Another Liberal Lie
-
Shall we skip the part with the giant dogpile where a bunch of people weigh in with, "OH MY GOD, YOU'RE BREAKING THE RULES OF TEH INTERNET," and I retort with, "BLAH I WAS JUST TRYING TO BE FUNNY YOU BUNCH OF UPTIGHT CODE NINJAS," and someone can chime in "WHAT ARE YOU FIVE YEARS OLD," and I post to, oh, I don't know, the picture of the baby giving the middle finger or if I really feel oh-so-edgy, the "special olympics/internet argument" cliche, followed by an enormous number of 1 votes for everyone (but especially me). If Stan cared about preserving the sanctity of his fecking username for all time, he wouldn't have changed it just because the crazy random brown person came up with a clearly awesomer nickname. ;P - F

One thing that the mass media and so called "criminal experts" seem to go on and on about is this "identity theft" ridiculousness. Yet, I've never met a single person who had their identity stolen! Fear of identity theft is an underhanded liberal socialist tactic in order to make people feel more comfortable about accepting government control over their lives, and a subversive push towards reducing freedoms, i.e. - "we can't sell you this gun, because your identity might have been stolen." What depths won't liberals sink to to push their agenda? X| "Liberals are stalwart defenders of civil liberties - provided we're only talking about criminals."

That's certainly the case in the UK - Tony Blair opposed the ID Cards scheme Michael Howard pushed when Howard was Home Secretary (in favour of more police, obviously), only to U-Turn ten years later on when the shoe was on the other foot. And opposition here appears across the whole political spectrum. /me pushes NO2ID again for UK bods: NO2ID[^] [EDITED: Typo]

You made a good point. The liberals will stop at nothing to push their agenda. I find it interesting that the word liberal comes from the latin word menaing freedom, but they are continually pushing for more socialism and government controls. Liberals support socialist garbage like eminent domain property confiscations (See Here[^] ), doesn't that seem anti-american. Can you imaging the founding fathers putting up with that? I also hate how people who want to restrict our freedom always refer to "the terrorists" in such an ambiguous way (For instance, see Here[^] ). They are just trying to make us feel insecure so they can further limit our freedoms.

Well thanks. I get myself into trouble more often than not, but some things just crack me up. I thought my 'equatorian racist propaganda' line below was hilarious. I mean, what kind of an ass could possibly take that seriously? :~ "Patriotism is the first refuge of a patriot."

That's not a liberal lie (except that liberals of course are the cause of all evil). For example travel guidebooks about south america tell you everything about thievery and robbery. With special glee they share the complex schemes that some of the ladrones use to get your camera, money, liver and life. I never met one person in person who was separated from their posessions that way. I met people who met people who, and I met people who felt followed by a dog trained to follow them so the ladrones could follow them with some greater distance. However, I met enough people who got stoned and can't for the sake of christ remember where they put their camera. Who dropped their bags off on a dorm bed, left, and coming back wondered where their just purchased "super bargain" jewelry. I've seen (and had) many gadgets fall from trouser pockets on overnight bus travels. I guess all these complex trickery tales are fabricated by right wing "security experts", that want to keep honest liberals from learning abroad, and rather make sure people stay at home, so they grow into stubborn, close minded, undereducated Bush droolers. ;P

that's the PC way to say "we don't sell guns to right wing nuts". Definitely not an extremely prosperous business idea, but it's PC.
We say "get a life" to each other, disappointed or jokingly. What we forget, though, is that this is possibly the most destructive advice you can give to a geek.

While you're correct that the letter f requires an because of its pronunciation, proper usage in this context requires a because you're referencing the entire word.

no shit. for example, Bush and his sycophants, who uses the label on everyone who opposes him. and as for your other reply that i got an email for, but that doesn't seem to want to show up on the forum:

Why do you assume that every boogieman is a liberal? Certainly it can't be because our society and/or governmet are under liberal control. I agree with you that identity theft is probably over-hyped, but I put that down to the following: 1) The corporate media's need to oversensationalize news in order to keep selling their product. Very similar to the so-called "war on terror". (I don't know anyone who's died in a terror attck; do you?) 2) If people are afraid of identity theft, it becomes possible to sell them products and services that can help defend against it. 3) The government has a strong desire to prevent people from creating artificial identities - the flip side of ID theft. -- modified at 22:30 Thursday 1st December, 2005

When it comes to civil liberties, I am much more afraid of a right wight government than of a left wing one.

Which is something I've been mulling over recently as a way of protecting yourself from identity theft. The principle is straightforward - if you have multiple distinct identities for use in different scenarios, then the loss or theft of one of those identities causes you less problems than the loss of a single, primary, identity. Basic risk management, and points out the flaws with national ID schemes, which try and shoehorn you into having one identity.

Well, now you have. About 20 years ago, the company headquarters called and said the IRS had contacted them regarding a discrepency in my wage earnings. Turned out some Mexican was using my SSN. However! Other than the notification, nothing else happened of it. No destruction of life, no credit card bills magically appearing, etc. Marc VS2005 Tips & Tricks -- contributions welcome!

Slightly off topic but... I find Carnivore, DragonWare, and E911 more invasive to me than the government seeing what books I check out at my library. Our privacy/freedoms has been under attack even before Bush. Since most people/media don't understand technology, very few complained about these in the 90's. Thoughts?

there's a lot more to USA PATRIOT than just library books. National Security Letters, for example, are a flagrant abuse of power. it doesn't take much imagination to see how the Self-Proclaimed Patriotic Protectors of Freedom would react if President Hillary signed that kind of crap into law.
