I don't know and can't judge. I have several leftists among my family and friends that I love dearly and are positively wonderful people. If I judged them by what they post on Facebook or other social media, I would miss out on that other side of them that is pretty great.I doubt it. In my long experience people like this one, when they are so vile out in the real world carry that hatred and anger back to their families as well. Bodie strikes me as a deeply unhappy, hateful person.
I overlook some of their more hateful rhetoric even though it technically is directed at me because I know they aren't thinking of me specifically when they post it. But then they aren't anonymous at those times either. At least to me. And yes some can be just as hypocritical and one sided in their judgments as we see here at USMB from some. I just scroll over those posts and ignore them.
Here at USMB when the purpose is to say what we think, it's a lot different though. It can get a lot more personal. But the hypocrisy and conclusions drawn by many of the left are ridiculously silly. There is nationwide focus on Pena getting elected as a GOP member of the state legislature here in New Mexico. If he was a Democrat who got elected, and we have had some of those with extremely sketchy pasts and behavior too, there would be crickets from the left. That's just the way it is.
