Incorrect. In the past I had been a dues paying member of socialist/leftist organizations, I went to school for politics and philosophy, I've spent years of my life having conversations with people like you and reading arguments and following these topics. I'm not done because I'm ignorant or unwilling to face a truth, I'm done because I think you're wrong, and that you're unable to see reason. I've had this conversation dozens of times. No rational person would look at how an atrocity like the Pol Pot regime conducted itself and say "Yeah that wasn't fun but look at America! That's where the real evil is!" It's insane. For that reason I hope you have a nice evening, I will not be continuing this conversation.

Didn't ask, don't care.

I'm going off the actual content of your statements, and that content is that you take liberalism as axiomatically true and you fundamentally are unwilling to examine that axiom, instead writing off anyone who challenges it as "not rational" or even "insane" and refusing to engage further.
