Concern trolling Krugman

[cthulu2016]

...I also wanted to say something in response to the concern trolling, the “if you were more moderate you’d have more influence” stuff. ...this amounts to wishing that we lived in a different world.

First, there is no such thing in modern America as a pundit respected by both sides.

Second, there are people writing about economic issues who are a lot less confrontational than I am; how often do you hear about them?

This is not a game, and it is also not a dinner party; you have to be clear and forceful to get heard at all.
