I guess name calling is the way to show open mindedness and complex thinking.

No. The proper way to show open mindedness and complex thinking is to post a completely irrelevant and inaccurate link and ridicule the thread as an "epic fail". Classic lib move - don't let facts get in the way of your truth.

The only truly open-minded mass group of people are the radical moderates, who, unfortunately, have no political party, because we all know that dogmatism is what sells.

You can't sell a politics of "rational analysis" to the masses, who require explanations in 140 characters or less.

One of my greatest fears is that we will see our society continue a polarization route, wherein liberals and conservatives are further divided, with very little common ground. I blame this on the media at large, but "populist" social media in particular, which reduces vastly complicated social and natural phenomena to buzzwords and slogans - and any dumbass with an Internet connection is allowed to participate, only dumbing down the dialogue and creating further social fractures among the populace in the process.

I feel like this could've been better said with a meme

The "conservative" agenda is to keep the top 5% the top 5%. Part of the electorate believe it's gun control, roe v. wade and aca. :question:

I acknowledged making a mistake with an extremely uncommon name.

I'd say that shows being open minded to the possibility I was mistaken. Better than so many of the right wing wackos here who refuse to admit anything good about Obama, for example.

I'll admit something good about Obama. He will be in his last year in a couple of days.

You think he makes his own tee time, that's cute. He can tear up on command too, ever tried that? That's the mark of a master thespian.

Wait, "makes" as in schedules or "makes" as in on time?

I'm pretty sure he doesn't schedule that sort of thing.

The irony of a thread about political affiliation and the lack of open-mindedness being hijacked by two sides attempting to prove the other's lack of open-mindedness, while proving each lacks open-mindedness in the process, thereby only re-confirming the research being disputed, is duly noted.

Meanwhile, the radical moderates just sit back and watch, incredulous at the abject cluelessness on display.

But what the heck. It adds character to the board.
