I could have been more clear in my writing, but I was adding to your point of things that trap the left. The "Sir/Ma'am" was addressing a hypothetical left-ish "moderate" who gets trapped into criticizing other on the left by conservative talking points - not accusing you personally. I have no idea what your politics are.
- pstuart 10d agoMy politics are based on secular humanism and that we all effectively live in a commons. I'm rabidly anti-partisan but align with Dems because they are the least worst option. > gets trapped into criticizing other on the left by conservative talking points One thing I'll concede about the Right -- they excel at defining the language and debate and the Left is almost always playing defense. But to be a broken record here: the Culture War is the only thing the Right has to offer in the realm of political debate. It's a cheap and nasty, yet incredibly effective tool to manipulate people to vote against their own interest by their induced fear, hate, and anger.
