A ‘Twilight Zone’ caution for conservatives leaving California
To the editor: One letter creator’s indignant rant about other people transferring out of California rings a bell in my memory of an episode of “The Twilight Zone” referred to as “The Thoughts and the Subject.”
Within the display, the primary personality used to be uninterested with mankind and overpopulation, and and not using a self-awareness he needed that everybody might be like him. Lengthy tale brief, he were given what he sought after, and he used to be depressing.
It sort of feels to me that those who flee to what they really feel are “extra agreeable” setting are malcontents first of all and gained’t be glad regardless of the place they finally end up.
The letter creator additionally states that conservatives need to “make pals with the area people who ceaselessly assume like they do,” while liberals “crave consideration via being condescending and obnoxious, and via appearing how awesome they’re in comparison to the native people.” And he is aware of this how?

To the editor: Now not that I am towards printing letters espousing opposing viewpoints, however I used to be stunned via person who used to be not anything greater than an advert hominem assault on liberals.
Undoubtedly, you should have had extra cogent letters from conservatives, delineating the certain values in their arguments, reasonably than the only through which the creator describes conservatives as “simply in need of to make pals,” whilst “liberals crave consideration via being condescending and obnoxious, and via appearing how awesome they’re in comparison to the native people.”
For a second, I assumed I used to be studying a publish on Fb or Twitter, the place other people can say nearly the rest they would like with no need to fret whether or not it has any foundation in fact. I assumed The Instances had upper editorial requirements.
