Well said! I completely agree. I have been trying to make this exact point for ages but was struggling to get it across verbally but thats a really good way of describing it.
Its the same over here. Right wingers can only deal with absolutes and black n white thinking/issues/questions/topi
cs etc etc. As soon as things get a wee bit murky or 'grey' they really struggle to deal and lose the argument. E.g desire to judge all individuals on welfare on ability to work the same way -
Two words:
FOX NEWS!!

@MyhardPwner quite the opposite. see, now you look like a "shit-tard"
-
The CNN reporter got defensive about the whole thing and ended up looking like a buffoon!

"Why would you cast dispersions", sounds like east coast, latte drinking, elitist talk to me.

Joe did not ask him who he was voting for.... "Do you agree with your candidate?" is what he asked..... instead of the CNN anchor getting into a dispute he could have simply answered yes or no...
"the media is slanted to the left" Media is owned by corporations which are naturally slanted towards the right. The left makes intelligent questions while the right fumbles to come up with a gut answer but what you feel in your gut isn't always right if you actually think about things.

I find the issue to be a contrast between black/white thinking vs. shades of grey. Apart from exact questions dealing with well-known and "well-established" facts, - "Is the sun a star...yes or no?" - I believe the majority of questions in life can rarely be answered in yes/no terms. There are numerous answers in between, shades of grey, so to speak. I find that conservatives gravitate towards yes/no questions and answers (Hannity) . Answering in absolutes is dangerous and counterintuitive.
