Pod save etc is unabashadly biased, with no attempt to hide it. But they're also very connected, and have a lot of inside knowledge, having worked in the white house. So lots of info to dig through.

The rest will definitely appear left leaning to a died in the wool conservative, in the same way wikipedia is left leaning, and chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics, etc. are all left leaning.

the truth is always somewhere in between.

gluck's an extreme lefty, d0pps is retardedly extreme righty. neither of them are gonna be 100% right because nobody ever is (hell, one of them has mental issues and can barely put a sentence together).

the answer is always somewhere in the middle. find what you believe in and what is important to you and work towards that or if you're not the activist type at least remember why it's important to you. whatever you do, don't try to annoy people with it on a daily basis like a (frank)ing scumbag piece of poop (that part is important too).

When you're dealing with "GOD CREATED MAN 5000 YEARS AGO THIS SHOULD BE TAUGHT IN SCHOOL" and the theory of evolution... the truth isn't somewhere in the middle.

When you're dealing with "GIVE BILLIONAIRES MORE MONEY, THEY'LL LET IT TRICKLE DOWN TO EVERYONE ELSE" and "No, that's dumb don't do that"... again, truth isn't somewhere in the middle.

i mean overall. the individual issues are the individual issues.

but as far as dems and pubs or whatever, neither side will ever be 100% correct because that's just not possible.

I figure that if your beliefs live up exactly with any one political party, you aren't thinking hard enough about things. They're all trying to mislead you one way or the other.

When "We are equipped to take in billions of third world refuges but can't fix the electoral system" the truth isn't in the middle.

I appreciate a bleeding heart. I want to take home all the Puppies and Kittens at the shelter but I'm just not competent enough to care for them all.

Well we can fix the electoral system, there's just no political will to do it.

And like I said, the odds that billions of people are gonna come storming in looking for refuge are... slim.

I'm also not saying we can just open up our borders and let as many people as want to come, come. I'm saying that Canada has a lot of land and a lot of resources. If we wanted to rapidly grow our population, we could do it.

no kick is right, the truth IS somewhere in the middle. You're too much to the left, and if you can't see that, then I don't know what else to tell you.

agreed.

but there is no single truth. individuals have different wants/needs/priorities/morals.

the demonizing, mockery and hate/fear that develops for people with different views is the biggest problem to me.

Maybe you can define what "too much to the left" means, and we'll see if I agree.

I'm not mocking Dopps because he has different views, I mock him because he consistently refuses to address other people's arguments, willfully misinterprets them, and just goes on cartoon posting sprees when he gets called out.

I have no illusion that this is political discussion here... I just find it funny to see the myriad ways he can embarrass himself.
