Let's see how long this lasts :).
I am a liberal. I am actually a pretty moderate liberal, as I understand the benefits of the free market in most contexts and believe the preservation of family is important (though I think if it's important, we should address the problems that actually threaten the family, like no-fault divorce and drug laws).
I try to be polite and respectful. I am not perfect, and I sometimes fail--I can on occasion be a bit ruder to people online than I would ever be in real life. However, I am not a big one for ad hominems, and have definitely received far, FAR more vitriol than I have ever dished out. I have been called moronic, worthless and evil more times than I can count.
But I am the one who has had my account canceled twice. And do you know what it appears got my account canceled?
Quoting Bible verses that do not support the Republican Party platform.
So yes, you can be a liberal around here, but when you start dishing out liberal parts of the Bible, they shut you down.
Though it's possible it was also that I pointed out that normal straight men do NOT think about gay sex as much as Kevin McCollough and Mike Adams do. I don't think most GAY men think about gay sex as much as Kevin McCollough does.
So just be aware, around here; raving is perfectly acceptable. But making a well-reasoned argument (especially a Bible-based one) that threatens the orthodoxy around here will get you silenced.
