I am very confused at your reference to the piece written by Ken White (Popehat) as "lefty bothsidesism". I've known Ken since 1991. I am quite confident he is a curmudgeon, not a "lefty".
I would be quite upset if someone said that my daughter should be raped. I also would want to live in a country where she had bodily autonomy. I know that she joins me in both of those concerns. I am also quite certain that I would not take out my anger on the person who made such an awful statement on other people who asked intellectually challenging questions, even if it had a long preamble. And I am not a federal judge.
Please enlighten me. What is the basis of your contention "Ken is a liberal"? I mean, I've only known him for 30 years and had deep philosophical discussions with him, so I may be missing something that you know. Please tell me what makes Ken White a "liberal" in your eyes.
So just to be clear, you made an assertion that Ken White is a liberal. I challenged you and you doubled down, writing "yes, Ken is a liberal" without citing any basis for that second assertion. I challenged you again, and you finally admitted that you were without any knowledge and were just spouting off.
You know as much about me as you do about Ken White. I certainly do not think that "literally anything is justified to win the culture wars." I think that taking down loudmouths with unsupported and ill-considered views is certainly justified.
Oh my goodness. I get it now. EL is performance art. This is an epic troll by someone who is impersonating a stupid person, to show how stupid a stupid person could be. By doing this EL is undermining the conservative backlash to liberals.
I take my hat off to you EL. Your ruse worked on me for a long time. I now understand that you are not actually as stupid as the stupid things that you are writing.
I believe in "taking down" ill-considered loud mouths by demonstrating their ignorance in substack threads hosted by David Lat. You can collect your parting gift of Rice-A-Roni at the door.

Also, I am amused by the ill-considered loudmouth who hides behind an internet pseudonym.
There is nothing that I have ever written that I would not defend in public.
Apparently, the same is not true with regard to "EL".

Golf clap.
