Does anyone else have an extremely Liberal sibling?

There's far too many people in the world that think that going to college is the be-all and end-all of their life. College is just "training" for leading your life. If you got into college and managed to graduate and get a degree - then congratulations - you just passed the training course. If you fail to use what was TAUGHT to you in college as a starting point and continue learning from there - then you really just wasted all the time and money you spent on college because in reality you didn't learn a damn thing.

Going to a 4 year school was worst decision, all it got me was debt. And I wasn't ready for it. Can honestly say that is true. Wasn't smart enough to reject the notion that everyone needs to go to a 4 year school.


But back to OP, no real liberal siblings, but liberal extended family, friends and in laws. But except for a few we have a don't S*** on my lawn policy. I don't go posting civil rights violation stories and statistics, and blasting their politics on their social media pages, and they don't post their lies and BS on mine.
 
I really don't think these people are "well educated." They are "well indoctrinated" and well provided with the tools necessary to be a servant to an agenda but I would hardly call it "well" educated. I can't call them stupid as many FR libs I know are actually "smart" if you are off topic but the hard wiring done to them by the Educational Industrial Complex is just too hard to rip out.

yep...youngest brother...total douche. He's one of the main reasons I dumped FB two weeks after signing up a couple of years back. College "educated" (Master's degree in Nursing). He can't really think for himself...most of his arguments are cut and pasted from other websites....when I called him on it he got all pissy. I don't need people like that in my life.

thanks for all the feedback and birthday wishes guys, I rarely converse with him as it is, he is the only male in my family that hasnt served. He is generally regarded as a complete vagina by the men of the family.
 
Education snobs abound in these parts- Yeah, I went/graduated UMASS Boston, first job out wanted to transfer after 1.5yrs into investment side and was met with "oh, you went to a state school -well we only hire from". You can guess the rest but, they sound like Harvard, Columbia, etc etc. Learned to avoid them and do not need them in my life.

PS: No one will read his resume at his funeral and cite his alma mata - unless he is an uber dick.

Happy birthday.

I have a brother that is a socialist obama voter who married an illegal alien. Cut that cancer out of my life a few years back, I see him 2-3 times a year when it is unavoidable. Cut your losses and don't look back, just because you came into the world in the same way doesn't mean that you have to deal with them.
 
You can pick your friends, but not your relatives. So it goes.
Any person that wants to inflict pain on you in any form is an not your friend.
I haven't talked to half of my "family "in over 20 years .
I am OK with that.
I am happy .
 
Why does the scene from full metal jacket when they held the guy down in the bunks and beat him with socks with bars of soap in Them come to mind. Tell your communist sibling that wars are fought by men and women who value freedom. It's nice to sit back and criticize them when you did not have he balls to serve. I think he is doing this stuff to get a rise out if you. Maybe put an add in the gay section of craigslist with his phone number and email might be fun

. I have been to be Stan and Iraq and yes I had douche bags tell me I should flee to Canada. Had some choice words for them and don't talk to them. No great loss

I have an older brother that was well educated, unfortunately because he went to college he also thinks that your only as good as the school you went to. He starts almost every conversation with someone with "what school did you go to?" when he met my wife thats the first thing he asked and when she answered UMASS Amherst you could almost see him look down on her.

Now i decided to not attend college and go straight into the army from highschool, a decision to him that was wrong and he never fails to let me know that.

He is also extremely anti-gun, and anti-war to the point he would gladly call a returning soldier a baby killer, war criminal etc.

When i came home from my first deployment we had a big family dinner and one of the first things out of his mouth to me was "so how are you doing with your PTSD?" thinking he was being nice I told him it was alright and it wasnt really an issue and he immediately started telling me if i hadnt gone to war or enlisted I wouldnt have any of that and I would be able to live a normal life.

When i got my LTC he decided it would be better if he didnt attend family outings that I would be at because he didnt want to be around someone with a gun, he also never misses a moment to harp on gun control and "common sense" gun laws that he KNOWS would benefit the nation. He starts every one of his anti gun speeches with " just imagine what the world would be like if there were never guns, think of all the kids that would have been saved." I always tell him there isnt any point in day dreaming about something that wouldnt happen, its a waste of time.

Today is my birthday and instead of Happy birthday post on my facebook he put a collage of kids faces that have been killed during OIF and OEF entitled "Their blood is on your hands"

your a douche, end rant.

I would have taken him out back and punched him in the face. Glad his indoctrination serves him well. I would rather be street smart than book smart. I know some highly educated people who are in there 60's and still don't know how to pump their own gas. Seriously. Oh and for his gun free utopia...might look like this.. Vlad the Impaler.jpg

Can I ask what your brother does for society? I mean he went to a great school...yeah good for you, but has he done FOR SOCIETY ..does he produce or does he consume? In my book, and I have a doctorate, I would rather has you for a brother, cousin or neighbor than any of the asshats I went to school with.

Cheers

Disowned and called a communist scum socialist ass hole. That's what I would do. My sister doesn't know what she is but she is definitely anti gun and has caused several arguments and me to stop talking to her more than once. I plain told her she was ignorant and a moron and left it at that. LOL
 
Happy birthday, sorry your brother is an ******* and treats you like ****. Thank you for your service!
 
No one in the family has told this clown what they think of him and his "education"? Sounds ripe for a Louisville Massage. I hate people that think that because they went to college that they are the end all and be all of life on the planet. I've looked at people like that and figure that they eat, breath and put there pants on one leg at a time and will end up as we all do as worm food one day. Arrogant snob, elitist SOB everyone of them. Happy birthday and don't let your brother ruin the rest of your life. If fact you should buy him a gift tap dancing lesson in a mine field comes to mind.
 
My Dad voted for Obama and is a leftist, union, socialist and he makes me so crazy I can't have a meaningful conversation with him cuz all those Republicans are against the working man... and worse.

He's in his 80's and hell I know he does't have the much longer... it is very difficult.

Can understand what you are going through... a good punch in the face might help your older brother. Maybe a trip to a military cemetery. as my visit to the one in San Diego really brought the sacrifice made home to the heart. But maybe he's too big of a douche...

Sorry if I ramble... need another vodka
 
First off, happy birthday. Second, your brother sucks donkey balls.

I'm glad majority of my family has the same political leanings as me. They all love guns and the military. Too many of us have served/are serving for them not to.

I just want to point out his snobbery and politics aside... telling your veteran brother he is responsible for our war dead is just a whole other level of ****ed up. That crosses the line fron being an arrogant fool to being downright mean and uncaring.

As I said, I have very liberal parents... who were very supportive of my decision to enlist in the Marine Corps and were supportive during my deployment. They both went to Brown and got grad degrees from Columbia, and my mother has an additional masters from Harvard. These very liberal "educated" and wildly sucessful people still wouldnt pull the shit your brother did. The politics are really irrelevent at the point hes at.

I just read this again.. (I imade the mistake of skimming through your post the first time) . and in reading it, I'm surprised you didn't tell us that you smashed his face in. If I was in your shoes and someone said that to me there are only two things I would have done:

A- issued a correction and punched him in the face;
or
B- recused myself and never spoke to him ever again.

That's the type of arrogance that makes me livid.
