    The right falls in line because they’re fascists who are afraid of thinking for themselves. Diversity of thought causes discourse, that’s a natural fact, but it should be celebrated as a strength. Looking for leftists to shut up and fall in line is like peak “enlightened centrist” thinking.

      There’s fascists, american monarchists, libertarians, religious nuts, the rare fiscally conservative, the 2A’ers, etc.

      Who said “leftists to shut up”? Not me. You can bemoan the 2 party system all you want, but it’s what’s here. The way for the left to be actually effective in achieving at least some of its goals is to give Dems consistent and overwhelming victories.
