taramarieHe sees it in others clear as day but not himself. Amazes me. I wonder why that is. I am constantly doing it for myself and listening helps. But he is incapable of doing so for himself. It is just amazing to me.
Interesting isn't it. Just as you read the post of mine and asked people to actually read it and try to understand what I was saying before going off on me. Of course, Eric did not do that, but instead launched a massive diatribe to which he applied every right wing and libertarian stereotype possible to me and emphatically stated what (he assumes) my beliefs and positions to be. The funny thing is that he couldn't be farther from the truth but he is a prisoner to the false dichotomy of liberal / conservative. More to it, he certainly falls into the pattern that, while common on both "sides", is certainly more pronounced on the left of demanding blind obedience to a set of doctrines and one is either for "us" and by extension every one of those doctrines or against "us".
He, and those who think that way are their own worst enemies.
