    Well, this is a very sad & telling admission. As soon as I care about science, truth, freedom of speech and honest discussion, I become right-wing? Nope, I'm liberal left and you loons can't have it.https://twitter.com/ngmcclernan/status/968524416228511744 …

    Sure it is because that's why the story of a minor incident at a panel with Damore is all over right-wing media. You're part of the right-wing echo chamber now, like it or not.

        Aren't you more of a node that pulls people of the rightwing outside of their echo-chamber? You connect with them on some issues, and then build up goodwill where you can challenge them and they'll listen about areas of disagreement?

        Sorry that was really more in response to the idiot tweet you posted. I’ve always been kinda on the right, but really digging the conversation happening in the middle right now. Gives me hope.

        If it's any comfort, conservatives and libertarians get labeled as lefties for similarly reasonable criticisms of the loony right. Look at @JonahNRO's twitter feed sometime. Or mine, for that matter.

        That woman needs help. She accused me of being a member of some obscure American organization I'd never heard of and had to look up. Which was definitely strange given that I'm Canadian.

        It's all over right-wing media b/c liberal media won't touch anything that challenges their gender narrative w/a 10-foot pole. But some of us former NYTs acolytes have caught on. Hopefully more will over time.

        Of course because “if you’re not with us you’re part of the nebulous monolithic enemy” is the keystone of Enlightenment liberalism.

        The fragrant honeysuckle spirals clockwise to the sun, and many other creepers do the same. But some climb anti-clockwise; the bindweed does, for one - or Convolvulus, to give her proper name. (1/x)

        Rooted on either side the door, one of each species grew, and raced towards the window-ledge above. Each corkscrewed to the lintel in the only way it knew, where they stopped, touched tendrils, smiled, and fell in love. (2/x)

        Said the right-handed honeysuckle to the left-handed bindweed, "Oh, let us get married, if our parents don't mind; we'd be loving and inseparable, inextricably entwined, we'd live happily ever after!" said the honeysuckle to the bindweed. (3/x)

        To the honeysuckle's parents it came as a shock. "The bindweeds," they cried, "are inferior stock! They're uncultivated, of breeding bereft! We twine to the right, and they twine to the left." (4/4) For the full song, search for "Misalliance Flanders and Swann"

        Those who dwell in echo chambers have no idea how to label those who reside in polyphonic auditoria.
