Well, you take the time to read through the internet until you find
Whatever you think supports your politics, sure. That’s not really educating yourself.
For one thing, you could have found any number of pieces explaining that the need to balance community and individual rights and interests has been recognized since our founding documents, but that wouldn’t fit with your extremism about “groups having no rights”. Speed limits are an obvious everyday exercise in balance between individual and community interests.
Certainly, people can disagree about the right balance, but one who thinks community interests are more important, relative to strict individual protections, in certain cases, are just those who disagree with you, not “communists”. That’s a real word with a real meaning, but you use it improperly, simply because it’s inflammatory.
It’s really just your own kind of capitulation by personal insult to whichever public figure it’s aimed at.
