The Gooder Democrat: A Manifesto

[hfojvt]

16. it is though

and it is the OP's pet issue, so I don't know why you want to attack him. It's my pet issue as well.

The reason I call it a "pet" issue?

Because, pretty clearly, a whole lot of people on DU do not care that much about it.

Oh, every now and then a thread about it may make the greatest page with 100 recs, but the rest of the time this group spends talking about and arguing passionately about - other issues. Issues that they clearly care more about - hence their interest in arguing about and discussing them.

For some people it seems to be far more important to slam the Tin Man to the ground (symbollically at least) so the rest of us chant like the cowardly lion "I do believe in rape culture. I do believe in rape culture. I do. I do. I do." Any supposed concern they have about income inequality takes a seat well to the back of THAT priority.

But the Tin Man does not even post here any more. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x681832
