i have to admit i'm guilty of this
posting on ultra-liberal sites like this one makes me a bit more self conscious about it but i guess my views really aren't as progressive as i usually assume they are. i guess i'm progressive in comparison to the majority of my peers irl, but compared to most of you i'm not.
