You have me at a disadvantage then, because as a rule I try to judge the words of the person I'm talking to only, whereas you feel free to assign guilt by association, without even having the decency to discern if the comparison is worthy beyond a single broad descriptor for the specific person you're speaking to. It's not rational, and furthermore its undignified.
I'm a person with strong libertarian leanings. Shockingly from a concept that is broadly focused on individual rights and liberty, a wide variety of individual interpretations of what that means in turn ends up creating lots of differences of opinion depending on what specific subject matter is. Look in the friggin archives over on the Libertarianism board back when it was more active and you'll find no end of heated debates and dissent, yes even over the gold standard.
A little humility here goes a long way. Are you up to having enough to dignify a person on their own example instead of those of a perceived third-person/party?
