    It's cute to see how many people think politicians change their positions because of moral growth.

        @billradun @David_Boaz I'm not a supporter of any flag but Stars &Stripes, but why is it a problem should folks change views on Conf flag?

        @InheritTheLand @David_Boaz Same for you guys. Why do people emphasize "be on the right side of history" to convince the population?

        @Jkqyl @InheritTheLand @David_Boaz that implies one group has moral advantage over another on history, past, present & future; ....pure BS

        @David_Boaz @cobrown Perhaps it's projection. A lot of people have experienced moral growth. They then confuse politicians for people.

        @David_Boaz @BradThor It's funny to see Libertarians automoatically accept things because they are classified as socially liberal.
