(3,575 posts)I use moderate language, frames and thought patterns, just as the majority of the population does. Very few see government as the 'evil to all' as they do on FR or as the 'answer to all' as on this board and the problem both those sides have is that they believe the nation should be ran as only they say, with no questions asked. They are not the majority they wish or even think they are, they are the minority and they are wrong.
My debate is about truth based on fact, not cheerleading opinions that are based in ideology. Everybody has opinions and everybody is free to state them, but if you expect people to support them, they better be based on fact. Because if they aren't, you get shit like "Democrats are socialists," "Obama is going to take our guns" and "Republicans are fascists."
