Dave Hall, responded as though on cue:
One can project a negative opinion of a person or policy without it
automatically stooping to the level of "hate filled rhetoric". But it
seems that those on the left are particularly sensitive to this and
seem to blur that line between criticism and hate.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Until you demonsrated the behavior of criticising based upon stereotype
so exactly, some might have dismissed my observations as merely Gould's
personal opinion.
Stereotypes are born when the particular group that has become
"stereotyped", exhibits the "stereotypical" traits that eventually
become attributed to them.
Behind every stereotype, there is a solid grain of truth. What one has
to remember though is that stereotypes, like most other things, are
not absolute, there are always exceptions. But because you can name a
few exceptions to the "stereotype", that does not invalidate it for
the majority that it does apply to.
That being said, I see it far more often from members of the left,
that they are quick to denounce criticism of their ideology as "hate
speech" (Such as conservative talk radio). Conversely, while the more
outspoken members of their "group" are caught using language that
equals or exceeds that of those they criticize, and are called to the
carpet for it, they cry "foul" and insist that they are only
expressing their "right" to disagree.
The double standard is there whether you want to admit it or not.
I find that typical for just about anything from the left........they cry
foul all the time for the very things they are guilty of. Race baiting is
another prime example.
