To quote a classic tweet, on the strategy of hiding details in order to deceive people into thinking one is more-moderate:

> Conservative: I have been censored for my conservative views

> Me: Holy shit! You were censored for wanting lower taxes?

> Con: LOL no...no not those views

> Me: So....deregulation?

> Con: Haha no not those views either

> Me: Which views, exactly?

> Con: Oh, you know the ones

> a view point largely supported

No, you're playing a rhetorical game, trying to con readers with a switcheroo between pairs of "viewpoints" that aren't actually the same thing at all. For example:

1. "The liberals are everywhere trying to teach our children something wrong! They're telling them men can become pregnant!"

2. "Men--by which I implicitly mean people without the parts for it--cannot become pregnant."

Only the second one common and banal, unless you ask someone with a weird fetish, or perhaps a fan of Schwarzenegger and Danny Devito eager to talk about the film Junior.

In contrast, the first one is not solely a medical belief, but also a claim about what others advocate, and the average American--or average HN commenter--may quite rightly judge you a weirdo for internalizing and repeating it.

Uhm, did we read the same comment? There were many things listed that only a demented fox news watcher would go off about in one comment. What specific thing does "80% of America" support?

I mean you believe a lot of shit that simply isn't true. Basically Breitbart headlines.

Where do you think children are being castrated, exactly?

Republicans love getting angry over completely made up bullshit. Please provide even a single example of a child being castrated.
