As I said, it was deliberately a generalisation.
How, EXACTLY, can one form a "generalization" from a chaotic system consisting of infinite variables emanating from the initial conditions? That was my point. It is IMPOSSIBLE. You might want to familiarize yourself with the fundamentals of the 'Butterfly Effect' as it might pertain to the dynamic chaos of human interactions!
Virtually any subject that comes up is met with an emotional response. It makes it impossible at times to have a rational discussion when one side continually responds with personal attacks.
With this statement above you've already made the error of limiting the possible number number of 'sides' and outcomes. You've automatically negated the potential number of potential respondents to few and relegated them to a finite few number of 'sides' of a question and determined the singular outcome and defining the outcome. That is nothing more than binary thinking. Hell, I can take a transistors that can count from 0 to 1 and back to 0 that could approximate your binary logic when assigned!

You don't realize that you've destroyed your own argument with that statement, your own emotional response. Think about that hyperbolic declaration of yours OBJECTIVELY and not emotionally and you'll see the truth of that.
A system of infinite variables? I'm quite capable of noting leftists sources as opposed to other political persuasions. You're laying the hooey on a bit deep. Believe it or not there is such a political group known as the left, concentrated mostly on university campuses. And I stand by the observation that the left consistently attempts to derail any discussion that they have no rational response to with personal attacks and appeals to emotion.
My responses are not even remotely emotional. They are an objective observation of the tactics I see used by the left regularly. I also note that you make no credible arguments against the examples I've given. You'd be hard pressed to find a dem politician that will not immediately cry racism in regards to illegal immigration, differing prison populations or any criticism of islam. cry sexism over the nonexistent gender pay gap or not going along with the idea that Kaitlyn Jenner is a beautiful woman.
Stating my observations on a college campus today would immediately see me labelled a fascist.

OH! My apologies ...I had been addressing you and your posts at a point of knowledge and education I see now was well above your own given you have NO understanding of cause and effect in chaotic systems such as the human condition. Too bad the sciences are being so ignored today.

There is much I could write here in response, but to not beleaguer the point and be succinct, you're remaining to limit the breadth of your thinking and envision the political universe in binary terms, exclusively; left & right, good & evil, fascists and patriots, etc, etc! I'm sure you've gotten me tagged as one of those "bleedin' heart libs", right? Just to set you on the right path and adjust your improper assumption, I'm not a leftist, but if it pleases you to believe that sophistry, be my guest and delude yourself some more!. I'm just a lonely conservative who has no tribal affiliation and enjoys being my own person.

OHHHH! Of course not! Perish the thought! And, "Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia." [Orwell, 1984]

I thought you might be above employing that ploy, to dishonestly deflect but I was wrong. First, you have to read and understand, then get the Hell out of that binary box in which your mind is locked. Ones and zeros of your binary reasoning are not the solution to every political question when evaluated. Sometimes the solution is messy. Too bad you don't have the capacity to comprehend that very basic fact, but instead try an easy way out from under your own words. I don't follow off topic deflections when proffered as bait. That merely allows the one trying to steer the topic in another direction an easy path to continue upon. Screw that!!!!
