Re: Political groups or ideologies you don't like?
Not much. I'm fairly conservative but get along great with lefties, with one exception:
(literally) Communism-loving European teenagers that know nothing about communism and never witnessed how much of a human tragedy it has been.
Oh, and one more: Creationists that publicly pretend to know something about science. That's rarely a big deal; they usually know not to make a fool of themselves.

Re: Political groups or ideologies you don't like?
I'm not a libertarian but I love libertarians and libertarianism. And just as soon as I sour on this whole redistribution of wealth thing I'll be glad to join their fold.

Re: Political groups or ideologies you don't like?
Libertarians especially the pro-war libertarian types. They only choose issues that suit their life style while at the same time not respecting other groups rights either. Its not their was some sort of divine belief that guides their needs. Im sorry if thats offensive to some but I can at least respect a group that either goes all conservative or democratic

Those aren't annoying, they're just retarded.

Those aren't annoying, they're just retarded. Usually in cases, a libertarian use to be a conservative till one aspect of the republican party doesnt suit their own life style. Like I'll bring up Danny Elfman's case where his old band use to make songs with alot of conservative messages(capitalism, pro death penalty) till when George Bush Sr opened his mouth about family values back in 92 is when he switched parties since he mentioned he was living in sin at the time and being divorced. Those are the most selfish people Howard Stern is another one that fits that description and most of the shock jock radio hosts.

Almost every group bugs me really, (just eliminate them all), but those are the worse, imo.

Re: Political groups or ideologies you don't like?
I'll just mention the groups that I think pose the greatest threat to modern democracy and intellectual society.
Creationists and their political cousins the Intelligent Design Theorists Global Warming Deniers Opponents of Universal Health Care, which covers a wide range of mostly right-wing groups Terrorists, and no I don't mean people who disagree with Bush, but actual terrorists, although that does include Christian abortion clinic bombers as well as Muslim extremists. People who say "Islamofascist." Religious groups who want to enshrine their beliefs into law

Re: Political groups or ideologies you don't like?
Critical Legal Studies scholars and Communists (real ones, not chic 20 something Che shirt wearers) and I really really hate Utilitarians, though nobody claims they a believer anymore, they still espouse their ideas.

Communism is one of the most ludicrous philosophies when in practice, as its impossibility is not due to cultural inertia, but due to its violation of innate human nature. As countless human tragedies have shown, some theories should remain in textbook form.

I don't know about number 1, especially in historical Protestantism, but I think the other two are certainly fair at least some point in the history of all religions.

That's also true for Democracy. But does Mannyisthebest detest Democrats, too? I admit that for child of pure capitalism it's hard to imagine a state of society in which Communism can be practiced efficiently. But who can imagine living in a feudalistic system?
