64. :) Sure. If I had to choose between eternity in LW and RW hells

Jul 2020

of self-righteous hate, of course I'd choose LW also. The Cheneys certainly do their part to make it a pleasant pastime for me as well.

But while we have practical decisions to make in this world, I feel like we should also try for good judgement. And definitely leave the demonizing and evil that comes of it to those on the right. We'll never be nearly as good at it as them anyway, so why compete in their arena instead of on our strengths? Plus, so many are genuinely awful, I really feel it does an injustice to their victims to insist that's not enough.
