Historian of Leftism here. All left-wing people are mentally retarded.

Gee, that was easy.

So, David, this is the caliber of follower you seem to be attracting. Is that what you want for your Substack? I understand the desire to find a niche by being orthogonal to most commentary, and maybe even contrarian. But do you really want to wind up as a voice leading a pack of baying ignoramuses? I know the Seattle paper fucked you over, and I get your bitter reaction. But is this who you want to become? I warn you, itтАЩs a ratchet mechanismтАФit goes only one way, more and moreтАж.

Michael, do you believe JDFree reads and enjoys the writing of this classic liberal, i.e. left-winger, yet also thinks that literally all left-wingers are actually retarded? Or do you think maybe JD was, to some degree, writing with tongue in cheek?

Unfortunately so are the rest of us. The left wing has no monopoly on stupidity.
