So indirection washes away the evil? Is complacent support that much better than affirmative support?

Compare actively supporting "birtherism" to passively supporting blowing up brown kids with drones.

I think you're better off looking for common ground with the people around you, rather than putting up barriers based on which politician panders better to them.

Edit: Case in point: we disagree here. I don't hate you for it, I'd hope you don't hate me, and I think this is a fine conversation to have. The alternative is we could each say fuck you and go our separate ways, and the world is a slightly worse place for it.
