On the Left: There's a pretty obvious one, but I'm tired of how circular it gets, and I vowed I'd never bother to talk in-depth about it here again, so I'll put it this way:
They downplay male victims no matter how badly victimized they were by the perpetrator.
And then you have TNF's criticisms on hackery and slacktivism, National Progressive's criticisms regarding bigotry and anti-Southernism, the Kansan guy's criticism's regarding PC worship.
So I'll also add to that:
Fanaticism on Atheism Considering dissenting opinions "ignorant" or to "lack perspective". Hipsterism Hatred of tradition just for hating tradition
On the Right:
Treating everything like it's an auction table and everything has some price. Bizarre bootstraps mentality Social Darwinism Bigotry Belief that all dissenting opinions are "moral hazards" Anti-intellectualism Anti-environmentalism Hatred of progress, glorification of regression Xenophobia Loud-mouth discourse. Low taxes obsession Rewarding the rich regardless of the methods they used to get there
And as Clarko so nicely put out: Acting entitled to winning elections (the old '04 regular-06 midterms posts make any liberal 2014 posters bush in comparison)
