It's not a matter of "refusing to read". I read many conservative writers, including the editorials at the Economist and a number of libertarian conservative writers.
I did not "accuse you of being brainwashed". If you want to take that implication, feel free, but don't put words in my mouth. It is not unbelievable that someone would have an opinion different from mine. pbd and berg74 and tinymammoth and ch and a load of people you don't know have different opinions than mine, and we discuss them.
I don't read someone who refers to people with my political views as childish and can type a sentence like "You'd think blacks and liberals would be happy, wouldn't you?" and publish it. Your personal life and your interests and the stories you have about your day are cool. Most of what you post is politics and from the content you post I can find no common ground between us.
You despise liberals and call us names, and your heroes are right-wing attack journalists. I don't need to read your LJ to get a dose of that. I live in Orange County, California.
I wish you well in your life but I can't see what can come of a political discussion between us other than needless yelling.
