Forum Post: Our society trains us to name-call our opponents. Call them right wingers, neocons, socialists. Call them conspiracy theorists. If you want to fight the system, start getting along. EOM

Yes, this name calling is a part of the "divide and conquer" tactic. And to keep us from uniting together.

Our society does not train us to name call our opponents. However, several organizations are training groups of people to do that for fun and profit.

I don't see how "socialist" or "capitalist" is name calling. These are economic theories that one may or may not subscribe to. Calling me a capitalist isn't name calling any more than calling a duck a duck is.

The only name/label that applies is too any of us is human. As such we all have a variety of opinions, beliefs and values. Sometimes they overlap, sometimes not. But no one label ever fits anyone of us all the time until death comes to label us.

That is soo right.

If everyone would just agree with me, we could all get along famously.
