No s**t! There are two forms of criticism, constructive and destructive. You're using destructive which is absurd. Oh Alright in a hesitant voice. I'll be absurd as well
Destructive only if you allow a bird to destroy you, and so far it seems you are by the plaintive tone of your replies.

Your reasoning of property ownership being detrimental to freedom runs afoul of conservatism and probably libertarianism, if I may be so bold.
and??? Is conservatism and libertarianism open to questioning, scrutiny and examination, yes or no?
Criticize away. You've been on WP long enough to know how this particular forum works (e.g. ad hominem attacks, red herrings, straw men, dog whistling, etc...).

To me, it adds nothing and contributes nothing. How does it make us better thinkers over all?
Think about what? You?re obviously a liberal and I?m a conservative. We can think about this until the cows come home and arrive at???..nothing.

Shaking my Damn Head at this one! This man thinks I brought my feelings. You know what I will admit it. I did bring my feelings. I am in utter shock at the buffoonery displayed before my eyes and it brings laughter and tears to my eyes
I sense more butthurt than anything.

If it's any consolation, the falcon was a lot naughtier in 2011-2012.
Which contributed absolutely nothing, IMHO.
Was it supposed to?

You johnny-come-latelys are actually getting a kinder gentler falcon.
Well, I guess I shall be honored and graced with receiving a kinder and gentler falcon in addition to a slab of buffoonery. Now, where is my Ketchup?
Ketchup?! Oh HELL no! A buffoonery burger deserves better than ketchup. I suggest spicy mustard.
Do you like troll taco?s, too?

You know what Falcon, you're right. Being condescending is pretty funny. I really got to do it more because it has put me in a very jovial mood.
Reversing yourself already?

That's all assuming we're taking about wiener schnitzel (i.e. breaded and pan fried veal).
Maybe cubedemon6073 has a Schnauzer named Schnitzel. Dogs do sigh. My dog used to sigh a lot, but that was probably from living with me.
I do things that would make a rock sigh.

http://cartoonnetwork.wikia.com/wiki/Schnitzel - this is what I meant.
I didn't know it was a food. It looks very appetizing I must say. I have to try it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schnitzel
Check this out also. Looks delicious as well. http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/spaetzle-dumplings

Nah, just having fun. Not sad in the slightest. If you're the falcon, then I'm the falconer.

Well, I will agree with that. We definitely will arrive at nothing. If liberal means being open to ideas with critical thought then I guess I am.

Used to enjoy them until the Trolls were hunted to extinction. You could bake them and the best way to have them is to BBQ them with steak sauce on a charcoal grill.

Notice how it kind of bounced off of the armor plating of the intended target?

Contemporary liberalism is about being open only to certain pre-approved thoughts. We conservatives are narrow minded, too, but we do not claim open-mindedness and critical thinking to be planks our political platform.

This stuff is da s**t if you can find it. Really enhances buffoon burgers and roast buffoon sandwiches.

I didnt know they were ALL extinct! The mods BBQ'd an old troll here a few moths ago but didn't share it with the rest of us, even though we helped fatten him up. How stingy is that?

So many more pages since I last dropped by. And yet so little substance.

Right, so you question, scrutiny, and challenge those things. It is possible that you are not the first to do so.
What sort of beliefs, values, and culture do you advocate instead? Kindly provide concrete, real-world examples if possible.

A loose conversation, your contributions to which mostly concern food?

Ah, here we go, substance??
Quote:
The ideal society is a town state or a population that is in the hundreds. A population that reaches thousands of people is stretching it.
Some people like to live in the country. Others prefer to live in large cities. What do you propose to do with those who do not share your ideal?
Quote:
We don?t need a growth based economy bust a stable-state economy.
No change, no innovation, no improvement? How is that desirable?
Quote:
People need to have values and ethics besides making money. Making money should not be an end onto itself but a means to an end.
This is a strawman. People who regard money as an end in itself must exist, but I've yet to meet them. Most people see money as a way to obtain a better and more secure life for themselves and their families.
In any case, people choose their own values, and live with the consequences. If you encounter people who have what you think are bad values, how do you propose to change their minds?

Somebody has to be making the decisions about what crops to plant and so on. At Marinaleda it's the Mayor (same man for decades, should be a warning sign) and his cronies. Strip away the leftist rhetoric and it's hard to see any difference between Marinaleda and the feudal estates it took over.
Perhaps you'd be content following orders all day long in exchange for the dubious security of food and a place to sleep. Many people would not.
I dislike watching videos, so I'll leave the last link for others.
Locke, Jefferson, Paine, Acton, Herbert, Bastiat, Hayek, Mises, Rand and many others have written eloquently and at length on the value of liberty and the concept of individual rights. If you want to present a counterargument you're going to have to do a little better than the above.
