Those who don't think for themselves are the deluded ones and that has no party affiliation.

How about instead of ascribing labels to groups of people, we start judging people on their individual merits? I don't care what someone believes politically. I care how they treat the people around them, and I'm so sick of everyone acting like politics is the only thing that exists in the universe. Life is so much broader, and people are robbing themselves of the possibilities by squabbling over it constantly.
We are too focused on the things that divide us instead of the things that we share, and it's just taking us further and further from what we could be.

@Unlearn I didn't say I don't care what they believe. I said I don't care what they believe POLITICALLY specifically. :)

@thepreposterouspanda yeah I meant the same...if you don't care about it then there's not much to say.

@SumKindaMunster Well, in such case the original poster should've made the title more clear, if it referred to extremists only. If a similar post was made with the word "conservative" rather than "liberals" (or even "right-winger" or "left-winger") you can bet the respective moderates would've been quite pissed as well.

@SumKindaMunster Me neither, I suppose your speculation is correct.
I wouldn't say "upset", I just think that this kind of generalisation, voluntary or not, only feeds divisiveness and benefit no side, potentially also resulting in an echo chamber. I'd say the world and the U.S. in particular at the present moment in history need exactly the opposite.
