Title: Enough with the Wulfric Hate!

I don't get it? Why the hate? Because he is an indie but isn't a closet Democrat? Because he disagrees with the Atlas hivemind?

Precisely. Anybody who challenges the established 'opinion' on here doesn't really get a fair shake.

Atlas hates Moderate Heroes.

If Wulfric was a moderate but defended his positions with something other than utter silliness, I would be cool with Wulfric.

This, or at least with more self-awareness...to which only Snowstalker seems to have less of.

Basically.  I'd prefer him to be a full-blown fundy who based all of his arguments on the Bible.  At least then he'd be consistent rather than take ridiculous halfway positions.

Because he has quite a bit of breadth to most of his opinions, but most politically inclined people who listen to his arguments (see: most of Atlas) can see that there is no depth - only talking points. Defending our resident segregationist troll doesn't help either.

Who?

Seriously, who are you talking about?

Perhaps if Wulfric wasn't objectively not smart he'd be more popular here.

On that note, however, Wulfric is still a better poster than FREEDOMHAWK

Exactly. Atlas really doesn't like his talking points infecting all our threads dedicated to Think Progress headlines.

The anti-same sex marriage stuff probably doesn't help.
RIP Moderate Heroes.

It's not even that. What irritates me is that he tries to pass off actual right-wing views and moves to the right of the general consensus as "moderation". To be honest, he's not a "horrible person" - it's just that he's more of a Kelly Ayotte than an Andrew Cuomo (which I find honestly more irritating than actual moderate heroes).

Intelligence and the ability to be logical are loosely connected, at best.

Take a look at Ben Carson, for example.
