They attract right-wing trolling too! The curse of being an independent thinker.

Ah, but does Jim think there are right-wing trolls on here or truth tellers? Tribalism at its worst.

A mind-reader to boot! You're wasting your time here - you should be playing cards at the casinos with your gift ...

True - but the difference is the right-wingers come to argue; the left-wing trolls come to intimidate into silence. They generally invoke the "How could you ..." or "How dare you..." or the "I can't believe ...". These are all attempts to silence. I haven't seen that nearly as much from the Right.

Don't degrade your ethos so casually. It is the only currency you have.
