You are the most darling castrato, Count Erpoint.

Age is not as much of a factor as this wishful thinking dictates. Democrats have to accept that having a message and a campaign is crucial, rather than just sitting back and expecting everything to go their way because the future!

I feel like you're just projecting how you think others will (and implicitly deserve to) treat you.

And if they do, they're either mentally ill or idiots (like the people who attacked the actor who played Edith Bunker's rapist) or they want it to be real.

There's a fine line between pandering stupidity and reasonable clarity.

Yeah, this is most notable with Christian fundamentalist movies (I've read a review recently that called "The Message Is the Only Thing That Matters"), but it's spreading into the secular world.

Quite a lot of countries in Europe and Asia might disagree with you there. Do you presume that the US is the cause of all geopolitical evils? The world needs American power for good. But it hasn't been going that way recently.

That is a gross oversimplification of faith and you know it.

It began with the end of the Cold War. Once Communism was done, the environmental movement became the target of red-baiting.

The majority of people. I have found no evidence that this is particular to white men. You just notice because they're mostly not on your side.

Honor demands that they stick to their guns. In politics, that's called integrity.

Meh. Demographic doom for Republicans is a nonsensical canard rooted in the idea that neither parties nor interest groups ever change.
