    Good for you, it's better to be straightforward about one's beliefs, but maybe you haven't seen all the many posts by OP complaining about the label "leftist?"

    That is what I was getting at.

    "Acknowledge"? You "acknowledge" those things? Give me a break. Those things define everything for you. Your worldview, at least as expressed here at PF, has no room for individuality. You group everybody and everything immediately and then attribute to them every preconceived notion you have about the group to which you assigned them.

    Natty, you're such a compulsive group thinker that I doubt that you can break yourself of the habit for even a day just to prove me wrong. It's just the way your mind works. I simply cannot relate to that. I can't imagine going through life thinking of myself, or others, first and foremost as members of groups rather than as individuals.

    It is rather humorous, a conservative accusing those on the left of group think, especially considering the conformist nature of many of those on the right. Did you hear that from Mark Levin? Sean Hannity?

    "A conservative"? Again with the group think. You really can't help yourself. It's actually how you think. You think of yourself and others first and foremost as members of groups rather than as individuals. I just cannot relate to that.
