Reading comment threads on the Guardian’s sites and elsewhere on the web, two patterns jump out at me. The first is that discussions of issues in which there’s little money at stake tend to be a lot more civilized than debates about issues where companies stand to lose or gain billions: such as climate change, public health and corporate tax avoidance. These are often characterized by amazing levels of abuse and disruption. The second pattern is the strong association between this tactic and a certain set of views: pro-corporate, anti-tax, anti-regulation. Both traditional conservatives and traditional progressives tend be more willing to discuss an issue than these right-wing libertarians, many of whom seek instead to shut down debate.
Yuppers. Glad folks are starting to pay closer attention to the war declared on America promulgated by think tanks.
I think alternet identifying them libertarians is a stretch, however, the fanaticism of supremacists seems to try to plant itself anywhere it can. Left side of the aisle, right side of the aisle, 3rd parties.... no matter what flag, it wants to force itself into American dialog & keep everyone arguing to cash in on strife & human suffering in general.
Legal profession no longer represents truth or justice, but domination through monetary might & Supreme Court strategy defending monied interests. Military contractors in positions to instigate wars. Monopolies of media working lockstep for utopic vision of antebellum south as the new and improved America. Plantation owners are now transnational corporations.

....Propped up by the Capitalist Puppeteers who, along with their cohort of Running Dogs of the Reich Wing, succumb to the evil delights of gross materialism, racism, sexism, Beckism, homophobism, McMansionism, Palinism and gleefully participate in the hegemonist behavior of the Zionist Banking Cartels, their Corporate Lackeys and Fox News provocateurs.

The easiest way to divert attention to what you are doing is to point your finger first and hope it deflects the attention away from you and your ilk.
