    Nothing here really screams "awful" at me right now. I'll have to peruse the whole set list... Oh, and Lion's Eye Diamond was always a strong card. People just didn't know how to use it back then and the types of decks that exploit it weren't really in force. There was also no Yawgmoth's Will...

    Does this season always bring out the nutcases?

    Whether I prefer a more or less moderate strategy depends on the situation. Like I said earlier, when I have a great deal of understanding (or even think I do) about an issue, I'm pretty much always an extremist (can't think of a single counterexample right now). When I don't know enough or am...

    Does this season always bring out the nutcases?

    In my understanding, the key characteristic of any generalization about people is that it takes an observed trait for some of a group and extrapolates that for the entire group (or possibly acknowledges exceptions but dismisses them as unimportant, I suppose). A statement like "people do x..."...

    What? Why? And when did I generalize?

    Does this season always bring out the nutcases?

    I don't think that it's all a lack of conviction. People can have conviction for a perceived moderate position. And I do think most people wind up taking extreme positions on something, even if they're moderate about most things. What I take issue with is setting up two points as the "far right"...

    Does this season always bring out the nutcases?

    You started with "not at all" but instead of arguing with what I said, you argued with what I did not say. I made a statement about people who call themselves moderate. Hence "People who label themselves as moderates..." I was not defining "moderate." It is indeed what radio talk show hosts...

    Does this season always bring out the nutcases?

    It's boring. It seems to typically provide stability at the expense of progress. People label themselves as moderates in order to appease an audience or part of an audience and because political thought is not a linear spectrum, there are enough intricacies and enough vague parts for this...

    Does this season always bring out the nutcases?

    Ah, I love this state. Yeah, that Capitol deal is a circus. Whatever irks Bill O'Reilly the most is cool with me, though.
