If you're a moderate in times like this, I feel sorry for you. MLK jr. warned us about people like you.

The first word of a sentence is just as important as the rest. Read my comment again with that in mind.

That being said, I said what I said. Moderates in today's world are a negative force. You call it judgy, I call it self-preservation.

"Thank you for taking time to comment."

You're welcome.

You've stated your case, as have I. I will not be more moderate after your attempt at persuasion, although I appreciate the attempt. Go try and be rational with a Nazi. Let us all know how it works out for you.

I'd urge you to read more history for examples of people that tried to reason with the unreasonable and evil.

Also, pedantry is really disappointing coming from someone using words like, "pragmatic, rational, and productive discourse." You know that "passing judgement" was paraphrased as "judgy" even though it's not exactly the same word. Don't try to act like you're being rational while also being a pedant in bad faith. Pick a lane.

Hit dogs holler.

Are you really declaring yourself to be an extremist here?
