We live in an age of polemics. Choices are presented as mutually exclusive and you're given little time to listen, to be reflective and careful in your judgment, or to acknowledge the validity of different points of view. Don't water your perspective down with nuance. Keep it simple, blunt, and direct, but whatever you do, don’t seem to be of two minds. You're supposed to pick your enemies, not consult with or even love them. You're asked to make a choice and a quick one at that, one that binds you to one camp that is defined by its opposition to another. Where do you stand?
