Some folks have some weird politics

[Bhassler]

It's interesting to see some of the diverse political/economic beliefs on the board. What's most interesting to me is that nowhere is the implicit assumption made by anyone on this board that they are obviously and absolutely correct in their beliefs, or the thinking that anyone not in agreeance with them is ignorant/stupid/morally defunct, etc. One might see it on other boards, but not this one. Of course, everyone thinks their opinion is the best, otherwise we all would adopt someone else's opinion-- I'm just fascinated by the 'everyone is stupid by me' mentality that so many individuals manifest when it comes to politics, economics, and The Truth(TM) (but no one on this board, of course).

That's because other boards are stupid.

I prefer to work under the auspice that everyone is smart besides me.
OTOH, I still hold personal beliefs and will defend what I hold dear to me.

That's because other boards are stupid.

and all their members are on the wrong side of all the important issues, too.
