If you're complaining about namecalling, why would you resort to much coarser namecalling?

mattdeboard on May 31, 2012 [–]

I'm not complaining about namecalling, I'm complaining about quasi-political categorizations like "pronatalist" which sets up "pronatalists" in one camp and "antinatalists" in another. I object to the needless polarization.

Sometimes people are jerks, that's not polarization.
