That cracked me up on Lindy Bill's thread. It could just have easily been titled "Arguing with Conservatives, and Why I've Stopped"- but the right has the tendency to label their "enemies" traitors, rather than Nazis. The name calling is different, the tactics and unpleasantness are exactly the same.

Thanks for posting such a fun example of a very biased way of looking at a problem that engulfs the angrier ends of both sides of the political spectrum.

My friend asked, “Well, don’t you think that people who live in large urban areas, who travel and read and speak other languages are better able to make informed choices?” It turns out it is superiority, not familiarity, which breeds contempt.

It is an absolutely true statement, people who travel and read and speak more than one language ARE better able to make informed choices.
