168. the problem with the reactionaries
is they might make up only 5-10% of the "liberal" population, but they seem to be the source of like 75% of the volume for the leftist ideology.

There weren't that many people calling the new Pope a Nazi, but the few ignorant "liberals" (I didn't know hating a religion one doesn't agree with is liberal) who were doing this posted this apocraphical shit repeatedly for a week.

And it's not that I want the reactionaries to shut up, because they have as much right to their opinion, it's that the liberals who are reasonable people, who are thoughtful in their speech, need to speak up just as much as the reactionaries to make liberals and leftists not look like the zealots.
