So smug because you are a majority, because you are a liberal, because you are younger and so on.  Increasingly, and oddly, conservative people are being marginalized in this wonderful society that celebrates diversity so much.  How nice to mock people.  To ridicule them.  Clearly, they are not worth being heard.   And so they won't be.  And the silos grow.  But thanks for writing such a wonderful article for your tribe.   I love the sound of slamming doors.
