Aside from the point: Real Libertarians don't watch Fox News. To their credit, they take a pretty neutral stance on a lot of issues. They don't impose their personal beliefs on others or sign them into law. On a political level, they don't really give a fuck about pot legalization or gay marriage or most social issues - they just defer those votes to individual states and rely on the constitution for everything else.
Thank you, so few don't get this. Most people bucket everything into there own (usually wrong) version of a left-right divide, and then when you try to discuss anything with them will just assume every negative of their version of the "other side" and throw that at you. This is true of both sides. In general the libertarians I've spoken with are neutral on these left-right issues and focus primarily on not letting anyone (themselves, large governments, etc) impose their will on others. At the same time in general the lefties are much more likely to assume/throw at me a pile of false positions that I nor most people hold.
o'reilly has the number one news show, with average 409k viewers in 25-54 demographic. so the attack on his viewers is an attack on the majority...do you really think that you are better than most people? hint: you aren't.
he is always balanced, great show
I only watched O'Reilly once, couldn't care what his political views are but if he has a viewership why would anyone be against him discussing Bitcoin???
It's sad but it seems to be more common for people on the left these days to want to shutdown everyone not on "their side". This is true from not wanting faux news to discuss bitcoin, to calling those don't fully buy into global warming science "deniers" to shutdown all discussion (even if you assume the science is right there are still many flaws, but if you don't listen you'll never know them), to many other examples.
Anyone who reflexively says "we don't need those ignorant right-wing faux news watching a**holes" needs to look in the mirror to see what is wrong with much of the world today. From this thread there are many here.
I am sure a whole bunch of people here will say I have this backwards, but I've never seen any thread calling to block bitcoin from being discussed on MSNBC because they hate those ignorant backwards liberals, but you see this all the time the other way....
