Reply #15: Accommodate this! [View All]

So... because large numbers of the population are too stubborn or stupid to vote democratic, even when it's clearly in their interest to do so, we should morph into something more palatable to them? Is this a deception, or are you suggesting we actually change our beliefs to more closely match theirs?

This concept reminds me of a mistake aspiring rock bands make when they focus more on getting signed than on staying true to their music. They go round and round chasing the latest musical fads hoping to catch the wave. It doesn't work. Chasing the red state mentality won't work either. Besides, I seriously don't like these people, and I won't be able to like us if we placate them.

In one regard I admire the freepers, at least when they were down they didn't try to reinvent themselves in our image.
