        Or just that most left-wingers are far more self-righteous than the bulk of conservatives, and therefore willing to justify far more exorbitant nastiness in pursuit of their perceived hypergoodlinesss.

        There is a withering condescending egotism among Dem Party authoritarian followers Marianne is referring to I never noticed in pre-Obama days, but maybe then I too was part of the too cool for school insufferables. I appreciate some of right’s backlash to it myself today.

        Hmm, didn't listen to the actual quote, she also mentions Fox News being nice but that's just using her to throw a monkey wrench in the primary process. Conservatives are still nicer than Liberals, and everybody is nicer than Leftists.

        A lack of emotional intelligence breeds the inability to handle opposing positions....it’s too triggering to many on the Left and the response from those who lack EI is to call names (racist, denier), censor (FB, Youtube), or even physically harm (Antifa).

        Same reason Jon Stewart and John Oliver went on TV to beg Trump to run. They thought it would be funny to see a nut run for office for the other team. The right is nice to MW because they don’t view her as a threat, they view her as entertainment.

        I am a self avowed socialist and i have to agree that certain leftists have an authoritarian "my way or the high way" mentality. Just the other day TYT viciously attacked Tulsi Gabbard - a true pacifist for silly reasons. Done even get me started on the Gender politics part.

        Conservatives tend to be religious, which tends to inculcate politeness?

        That's the same reason the DNC is locking @TulsiGabbard out. She's the only on besides possibly Yang of the Dems that can construct and articulate rational thoughts on the issues without hyperbole, pandering, and hysteria.

        It’s because the Repubs starting with #BossTrump and me are nicer. No other way to interpret what she said.

        I have misgivings about the way people behave, but I also feel totally sympathetic for their decisions. Our election system is designed for vile behavior. I don't see that as inevitable because of the discoveries I wrote about in Expressive Voting.
