re: #416 Killgore Trout

Yup. It’s not surprising. One of the key signs of extremism is not recognizing or acknowledging moderates on the other side. I’ve become wary of anyone who says “there are no moderates in Group X”, it’s usually a sign that the speaker has lost perspective and understanding of Group X.

Yeah, it’s not good to take a large group and make generalized statements that are meant to define everyone in that large group.

Take the Occupy movement for example. It seemed like there were a lot of generalizations made when some of the people in the group just wanted to make a political point.
