    "open minded" (or "closed minded") is not the first thing that came to my mind.

    Yeah...with Headlines such as...

    'Gay rights have made us dumber, it's time to get back in the closet'

    ...no wonder liberals rather not click or waste any time reading that...

    ...and is also a good example of something that might make a liberal unfriend a person if they see that person posting such links several times a day...

    Liberals close minded because they don't read Breitbart and watch Infowars. News at 11.

    i dont think youre a conservative. i think youre a trump supporter/defender. someone who endlessly makes excuses for him and attacks people who are critical of him.

    trump is not a conservative either and his supporters are immoral, brainwashed sycophants whose only ideology is to their leader.

    many of those articles read more like something out of the onion...a parody of right-wing viewpoints.

    the idea that the threadstarter expects anyone to take this seriously says more about them than any "close-minded liberals"...as usual, the threadstarter reeks of desperation with this silliness.

    I mean, this seems to just be common sense. Just look at which group seeks to censor those they don't agree with and you have your answer. Once upon a time I would have argued that group would have been the conservatives especially the "religious right", these days it's the leftists who constantly seek to censor anything that doesn't agree with them 100% of the time. Clearly they are more closed minded.

    That said, just as I hinted at before, this isn't a permanent thing, right now censorship and closed mindedness are considered virtues on the left but the pendulum could always swing back the other way and at some point those on the left could go back to looking to protect individual rights and those on the right could go back to valuing censorship and closed mindedness.

    If you can't consider that the world is actually flat, then you are a closed minded liberal.

    I think the font should be larger in the title, Os. You're selling your post short.
