Both ends of the spectrum toss important words around like they're nothing.We've chosen to conflate "rights" with "wants", just as we've chosen to conflate fact with opinion.
I hope there is a way to back to critical thinking from here, but I just don't see it.
Not "we" have chosen, the left has chosen.
By Clintonizing words like rights, they are able to draw a little more attention and sympathy to their cause. They often use the term Human Rights because they know their so-called made-up rights are not constitutional ones.
The Left tosses out "rights", "racism", "homophobia" and "Nazi".
The Right tosses out "socialist", "communism" and (of course) "Nazi".
WE are to blame for that behavior.

You and I do not always agree.
But this part of your argument I FULLY concur with.
ALL Americans are to blame for America's problems...especially for the ridiculous level of partisanship that has fallen over U.S. politics. And it helps America not one bit.
In fact, I think partisan politics is slowly destroying America.
That is largely why I am Independent (plus I think both major parties are so corrupt as to be beyond useless).
