... And now Ben supports SSM

[minionofmidas]

Thanks Sbane. I'm glad someone else gets it.

If you guys remember three years ago and before that, Ben was constantly attacked for holding contradictory and nonsensical positions that served no purpose but apparently to adhere to the Golden Mean Fallacy. It wasn't just me. In fact if you click on the quote I linked, someone responds in the next post with an obvious jab at Moderate Heroism. That's what this is about really, not gay marriage.

So where's the current relevance? That support for gay marriage is now a moderate hero position? Is that what you're trying to say?

Well, a position that is now shared by (many, and probably soon all) moderate heroes and the social left. Yes, yes that is correct. And it's a new development that you ought to welcome if you want gay marriage to happen.

I always thought moderate heroes has some use

Of course. They're good weathervanes.

I don't think anyone thinks I am a moderate hero. Or do you? 

Uh, yes.
