The problem is I rarely, if ever, see someone | anyone from one side take their own side to task. It's always the "other guys". This in turn is what creates said strawman and whataboutism arguments. Tribalism 101.

When you take your own side to task, you create credibility and display that you are not a partisan hack. When you don't do that, it creates a sense of being hypocritical. From the looks of it, everyone around here lives in perfect brick houses and thus allows stones to be tossed without a care in the world.

Once you realize both sides really ARE the same, that's when you can rise above the fray.

Each of us - everyone that posts here is free to start taking their side to task. Nobody is stopping you and yet I never see it.

So my challenge to the board is to do just that. If you can't or won't, then it just proves my point.
