[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue with Reed and his GGW ilk is that if you simply disagree with them, you're immediately painted as a bad person. I realize they do this to raise money from the sycophantic rubes in the GGW comments section, because they need a boogeyman to rail against. But it's not hard to see how their ideas often fail to gain much traction, considering some of their unseemly tactics.[/quote] The whole "agree with me or you are racist/a bad person" bit is really tired. A lot of these are nuanced issues with more than one "acceptable" opinion. And it doesnt make someone a bad person in the slightest to care about the value of the biggest purchase/investment of their lifetime. A lot of his opinions are pretty far out there on the political spectrum (which is OK!), but the complete lack of respect for diverse opinions does not win over any minds. [/quote] +1 You nailed my issue with him. [/quote]
