His words seems to be have been said with not a small degree of (inappropriate) sarcasm.

OK, so the implication being that we need more democrats from the far-left, or a collective shift by existing members in that direction? Neither extremes of the spectrum have a par…

The right are mostly moderates too, no?

Wouldn't the label "western tourists" be wildly inaccurate though? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_who_died_climbi...

How so?

Matthew, the person you are arguing with, or rather, hurling snark at, did not make the claim that language should never evolve. I'm not sure why you felt so compelled to end a rea…
