re: #288 Obdicut

I’m sorry, what are you talking about? There are definitely psychopaths that are ‘right-wing’. That doesn’t mean that all psychopaths are right wing, or anything beyond that. There are definitely psychopaths that are ‘left-wing’ as well.

The terms right-wing and left-wing lose meaning, especially in discussions like this. A term is only useful if you can use the meaning to communicate ideas. If you are in a struggle about the meaning itself, it’s no longer useful.

I do think there has been disturbing amounts of irresponsible speech, included from elected officials in the GOP, resounding with violence and endorsing crazy-ass anti-government positions. I think they should cut it the hell out. I think that the GOP is endorsing and allowing a level of anti-government speech that is truly dangerous.

Maybe so. I think there has been disturbing amounts of irresponsible speech endorsing bloated government. I think that blaming the GOP or Fox News for stuff like the Pentagon shooting is either opportunistic or completely out of touch with reality.
