  Don't know, don't care. Labelling people is just a way of distancing yourself from them, ending critical/rational discussion. https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/alternative-truths/201005/why-its-dangerous-label-people https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/alternative-truths/2010... I would suggest some rules, e.g. http://critical-thinkers.com/2011/03/critical-thinking-the-rational-discussion-flowchart/ http://critical-thinkers.com/2011/03/critical-thinking-the-r..., except I don't follow those myself. Discussion is just a tool for idea generation (brainstorming), having a position at all is the fallacy. At best, you have a mixture of labels, e.g. 40% black / 60% white, based on random sampling of opinions.
