re: #520 NJDhockeyfan

It seems I hit a nerve. I noticed there is a bit of outrage thrown at me for posting left-wing racism but not much denouncing of the racist comments themselves. Are they getting a pass?

You have hit a nerve. It’s the Intellectual Dishonesty Nerve. You just implied that you’re getting crap for posting left wing racism and yet nobody will denounce this left wing racism. You’re earning your Dim Hoft Stripes with a Double Down Star today.

It’s an oldy but goody, the False Balance Narrative. Posting racism is nothing new, but you’re ignoring any order of scale and magnitude. Considering scale and magnitude would cause one to say the Right, as a whole, has a huge problem with racism, since the left, as a whole, has little problem with racism.

You take a token few dopes on DKos as representative of The Left, not because it’s objective or practical, but because you want to.
