      Be very suspicious when people rail about being persecuted for "just stating an opinion" but don't want to say what the opinion is.

      Reaching out in good faith - I think you are missing what they are saying. It’s not about persecution, it’s about not being consistent. I’m liberal - I believe in integration not segregation, that facts & science are important, and companies don’t dictate or police your thoughts.

      During Bush years, it was clear the right did not support any of those things. I’m happy to give you plenty of examples of the left today flipping and now being intolerant of any views outside those approved. It’s disappointing & disheartening.

      With all respect, this is exactly what I'm talking about. What are the "views outside those approved"?

      Ok - since you asked - the Tom Cotten op ed was constitutional wrong & showed him to be an idiot. But if you argue that it was ok for The NY Times to run it then you are accused of making things more dangerous for black NY times employees.

      I have nothing but respect for trans people. But you cannot question growing numbers of trans teens without being called a bigot - never mind what the science behind gender dysphoria suggests.

      I remember the Bush era pretty well, and I do in fact remember a lot of annoying Jon Stewart like meta calls to "tolerance" as a value in and of itself that made you better than the Republicans But honestly it was shit discourse even then

      There was immense concern trolling at the time about people being personally "intolerant" to people who supported the Iraq war There were all these calls to be "tolerant" to religious right evangelicals and respectful of their beliefs

      And any liberal from the time worth a damn - including, on his better days, Jon Stewart - gave the middle finger to that noise Politics is about power and those people had tons of power and were using it to cause harm while hiding behind the "tolerance" bullshit

      And everyone knew, back then, that there was no reciprocity Of course the pro-war people don't "tolerate" you in spaces they control (the "Free Speech Zones" on military bases), of course fundie churches aren't "tolerant" inside their own halls

          We remember the Bush years differently. Back then it was being anti-war that was not tolerated. People were being fired for supporting gay marriage. Not being patriotic enough. The freedoms we wanted then should still apply.

          Ah yes. The logical reason we should be as intolerant as the right were 15 years ago. Right on time...

          I feel like we're already disarmed - the left doesn't have the numbers or social capital or ideological unity to do anything but take the higher ground, because we unfairly have consequences for getting into the dirt the right doesn't

          And on top of that, left-wing policy is harder to get people to agree to and they won't want to do it - we'll eventually have to raise taxes to pay for better healthcare, for instance I think we have to be smart about how we take the high ground, not just do it out of principle
