It assumes the two parties are on equal footing with facts, logic and historical knowledge.

Problem is, you cannot sneeze in a Discussionist thread without hitting hilarious defenses of failed and discredited 1%er friendly policies, deflection, projection, victim-blaming, victim-denying, logical fallacies, red-baiting, revisionist history, blatant sexism and insufferable assholery.

They're defending failure, which in turn is giving failure more of a platform than it needs to have.

One can't debate with people that have no concept on what it means to be wrong. Rove taught them that.
