The author of this article is not a conservative, not even a moderate, but what we used to consider a liberal. Remember those days when you could have civil conversations between conservatives and liberals. Not so today with so many on the far far left. As expected this post will be heavily downvoted. Makes you wonder why they so fear civil discussion of ideas put forth by a liberal. But a liberal that does not completely accept the narrative.
…why single out the far left for? Do you think the far right - or even the right - have been up for civil conversations for the past couple decades or something?
My old coworker was conservative and we talked politics all the time. I loved it because every other conservative in my life is impossible to talk to without them citing a bullshit story they heard on Fox or busting out the Bible as evidence.
The article was written by a liberal. He, not me, is explaining what he believes is the problem with NPR. If you disagree with his viewpoint you should debate him.
Any conservative who doesn’t admit that there are ALSO conservatives that don’t “debate” with facts is clueless. They come to us from both sides. And in either case nothing is accomplished because you never get to understand the position of the other side. But in either case once the other party resorts to insults you know immediately that you are better off having a discussion with your dog.
And that’s the goal here to have discussions. I want to understand the viewpoint of a liberal. To me their stances are childish and illogical. Rarely can any of them it explain it, they just start hurling insults or buzzwords.
