The ‘types’ of people? You mean people who don’t share the same political perspective as yourself? That’s not a’type’ … unless folks who don’t accept a particular worldview can be characterised as somehow flawed in character, morally deficient or inherently evil. It’s the same shallow ..dare I say lazy .. low resolution thinking that categorises any Republican supporter as dimwitted, any Tory or Tory voter as uncaring and self centred or, for further example, any Christian as uneducated and naive. I found the exchange above to be pretty ‘in depth’ and reasonable even though there was much disagreement. I hope that people raising perfectly valid concerns about the timing, the fact that it came through the Press rather than Police, the fact that Brand was feted until relatively recently when his affiliations moved away from a more leftish, progressive agenda and the concerns about the presumption of innocence and the necessity for due process won’t mean that they are the wrong ‘type.’
