Whether you agree with the politics of the post or not, if the post's assumption is that the religious right is trying to turn America into a theocracy, then the taliban metaphor is appropriate. However, the phrase "American Taliban" makes me think that the post is about John Walker Lindh.

At first I read angry modem's comments as referring to oissubke's post above. In any case, the relatively civil discussion going on in the metafilter thread rather disproves oissubke's analogy, no?

The problem isn't so much the analogy being correct or incorrect, but that with the words "American Taliban" one tries to invoke imagery of the Big Bad Evil Guys(tm) a la Hitler.

American Taliban sounds about accurate. It's no more offensive or objectionable that the typical conservative rhetoric of referring to liberals as communists or socialists. The term Communist has such a lovely connotation in this country that there's even a question used by the INS to screen them out "Are you or have you ever been a Communist?" There's also my personal favourite, using somebody's hateful comment to whip out the mantra "there's another example of that compassionate liberalism" to paint everybody on the left side of the fence with the same colour.

angry, that's maybe what it invokes to you, but troutfishing says that he did not intend it that way. I find the Taliban scarier than Hitler in many ways, as their policies express what they see as the one true faith, and are not solely based on political expedience. Not to get into who-was-worse comparisons, but with the Taliban(s) we are dealing with a large group of (eminently replaceable) religious fundamentalists, and not with the vision of a single deranged individual, without whom the 3rd Reich would surely not have reached the depths that it did.

Yes, when called on it, troutfishing did try to claim he only used the word "Taliban" to connote "Theocracy." But how does that square with the first four words of his post: "American Taliban plans theocracy"? As I noted in the post, if you take troutfishing at his (subsequent) word, that phrase becomes nothing more than a redundancy: "American Theocrats plan theocracy." I suspect his word choice was a little more deliberate than that, and was intended to suggest equivalence between the actions of the Taliban, and the predicted actions of the religious right.

OK I confess: I chained Steve to MetaFilter, even if he really really really wants to leave since day 1
funny how Linnwood, hamasheaven et al didn't bother -- as usual -- to refute a very simple -- if appalling -- fact: lots of very very vocal Americans (who happen to staunchly support your President) want to put more and more and more and more religion in the affairs of the State, advocating de facto theocracy and reversing the classic American principle of separation of Church and State
dear Steve and Hamas,
literally, as I'm sure you know, Taliban means "student of God". by extension, it is used as a synonym for fundamentalist Muslim.
as you know as well, there are many, many fundamentalist Protestants in the US: hence if a fundy (of whatever religion, be that Christianity or Islam) advocates theocracy, one should feel free to use a word made popular, sadly, by they guys who went the closest, in recent times, to creating a perfectly theocratic State.

konolia, I don't see you as a Taliban tho--i've yet to hear you call for your religion or religious values to be placed and taught in public schools, or funded by taxpayers etc. to the exclusion of all other points of view. These people are doing that, and are being aided by the Administration (and Justice Dept. and Dept. of Education, and Dept. of Health, etc).
If the Secretary of Education can call the teachers' union "terrorists," then we can call it like we see it.

Wrap it in the flag?

The Taliban can 'cause if men can marry men

So they like to keep it vicious
Say the other side's seditious
Make up shit that's just fictitious.
Who can ignore science?
Claim that it's all fake?
Gather up the evidence and chuck it in a lake?

If by that you mean that because of 9/11 nobody will ever be able to make analgous comments containing the word "taliban" without being immediately ridiculed for it, regardless of the validity of the argument, then yes, you're probably right.

This exemplifies, by far, the best reason to avoid political debate here on MetaFilter, or in the real world with strangers who simply want to win an argument instead of coming to an understanding.
The Secretary of Education made a huge rhetorical error while trying to persuade his audience of a larger point. He should be criticized. But his mistake should not, under any circumstances, be a valid reason to use similar tactics and claim immunity. First, you alienate those you are attempting to convince by using unnecessarily polarized language. Second, to those who haven't seriously committed to either side, you prove that you are not above mudslinging.
You need to respect your audience and its intelligence. Further, you need to respect your message. By resorting to name-calling and politically-charged language, you don't respect either.

I've been waiting most of my adult life for proof of that very assertion. Every time I begin to believe it, someone like Steve@Linwood, Justin Timberlake, George W, Rush Limbaugh, Ralph Nader, or Pat Robertson proves it to be ever so wrong.
After a day like this on MetaFilter, where everybody gets told that they're wrong, wrong wrong, from fatties to American Taliban, as well as any who oppose those wretched individuals, does anybody here still think that we can convince anyone of anything? Or are we here to make people look foolish, and count coup? I'm comfortable with the latter, as long as nobody tries to tell me who my target audience is.

I'm a young guy, Wulfgar!, so take my "wisdom" with a grain of salt.
I've been waiting most of my adult life for proof of that very assertion.
The proof exists within your life and its actions. Every single day's decisions are yours to live with. Every word uttered, every action taken...
I don't believe in karma, but I do believe in having a conscience. My mind causes me extreme pain when I participate in an action that disagrees with my ethics.
And you live with your actions...quite frankly, I admit that I have a rather large, and naive, conscience. And I understand that most others are probably willing to bend rules to achieve ends.
To that end, when I expose my ideas to others, I will only convince them to the extent that my ethics allow. Why? Because my end goal isn't to simply win an argument. My end goal is to convey my message to others, and let them (hopefully) arrive at the same conclusion. This process involves relationship-building and a great deal of tolerance, depending upon your audience.
Especially here, in an anonymous community without the benefit of actual human interaction, respect for others is limited and not a requirement. Therefore, convincing people of anything here is next to impossible. Which is sad, because we have some extremely intelligent people here who are either drowned out by the noise or resort to name-calling.

The audience here understands politics, and understands the power of words. They'll take it or discount it as they see fit, as evidenced by the post, and others.
If a group or groups, with the active support of the current administration is trying to inject their specific religious beliefs into our laws and government and educational and health systems, and using our money to do it, then stating their similarity to other groups that have done the same is absolutely just. Does it stop conversation? Not at all. Was it baseless? Again, not at all. There are other words that can be used (see my post way above), but why not use a current example?

The day that konolia and Blue Train make sense to me has just arrived. No, I'm not joking, tho they may be. But I have to say that I have drifted rightwards in my time as a member here. That may be coincidental to my growing increasingly middle aged. It also must be seen in a european/british context: a liberal democrat (yes, we have a party so-called) in the UK is considered left of Blair on some issues, but right of Blair on others. In US terms, we'd still be god-dam commies.
Mostly tho, I'm hanging on to the possibility that intelligent discourse on Mefi can be found amongst the ad hominems, straw men and fallacies. It takes alittle bit of compassion and irony to see that American Taliban was artistic license, not wild and intemperate attack.

(Anyone hoping to see the term "American Taliban" disappear is going to be waiting a while. It already has a strong foothold, appearing in mainstream media as far back as early 1997. The meaning took a while to settle, though a 1999 reference in the New Republic uses the term in exactly the way which seems to upset so many here: "Put it all together, and the post-Newt GOP seems determined to reinvent itself as a kind of American Taliban." Writer Dana Milbank went on to add, "I'm sure 'real America' approves of this turn toward military theocracy.")

The movie wasn't nearly as chilling as the book. Natasha Richardson stars. It's astounding and horrific that, unlike the often-referenced 1984, The Handmaid's Tale is actually being implemented before our eyes.

On topic, I just read the thread in question and it was both Talibantastic and theocralicious.
The disputation was certainly heated at times, and not always polite or very smart, and was dominated and moderated a little too much by troutfishing-the-excessively-voluble, but I really don't know what oissubke has against it. It wasn't the best of Metafilter, but it certainly wasn't anything like the worst.
