Anyone else feel far-left liberals are equally close minded as far-right conservatives?

Asked by syzygy2600 (3326points) February 18th, 2010

we all love to talk about how backwards, close minded, racist, ect. far right conservatives are, but in my experience the far left can be just as close minded.

For example, the far left loves to tell us how bad it is to stereotype people. What they really mean is that is bad to stereotype non-white people, as they will gladly lump all white people together under the banner of privelage, ignoring the fact that they may be poor, have a disability, or have grown up in an area where they were the minority.

in my view, the commitment to think with an ideology(i.e. conservative OR liberal) effectivly closes minds. thoughts?
