Their “political currency” is the tragedy of their victim “heroes”. Ours is the enabling of self reliance and determination. There is no common ground upon which to compromise or even talk.
I don’t quite agree with some about the “just don’t engage them” stance; some nuts are just tougher to crack. But I do agree with Joe… mostly, because while there may be no common ground now, there may be in the future or just that we have yet to discover what the common ground is. But it does take two to tango, and if they refuse to listen to reason, if they refuse reasonable discussion, then in their ignorant stew they will remain.
