Mook - Fionwe is a radical. You are not. The Shrike Send a noteboard - 01/07/2020 04:33:45 PM

You may agree on some things. You will disagree on most. That is ok. We are all together on this political spectrum. You don't need to think he needs to give you a break. Certainly we won't give him a break. And his reply indicates he is not trying to understand you and doesn't care to understand you.

He is uncompromising. Whereas you, as a moderate/centrist, can see both sides and can compromise.
