Both sides of the coin always make the same arguments and very rarely does either side realize it. Right now you will respond with some argument about how your Evil Empire is true and his Evil Empire is not, followed by a mention of me being a sheep for not believing in your Evil Empire.
It's entertaining to watch.

No I just think like that the majority of your generation are brain damaged because they probably smoked the stuffing of their tickle me Elmo dolls. Regardless the anger monkeys beating their chests have crawled out from under their rocks to try and save the world from communists and liberals again.

Yup.
More than 40 years later and everything has come full circle.
Back in the 1960s I had the misfortune of knowing both Emmett Gogan
(commie) and Sheldon Mitchell
(Conservative). Both were assholes in their own way but at least Emmett would feed you and give you the shirt off his back. Whereas Sheldon creeped the hell out of me and he wouldn't give a man the time of day without a speech first.
