Hey Wendy - to the contrary, I have always found a diversity of views as intellectually stimulating and enjoyable. When others challenge my views, that forces me to think things through outside any thought bubble or silo to see if there is new information I need to consider. And I also enjoy respectfully presenting alternative views to others for their consideration. No martyrdom involved here, simply enjoying exchanges with others.
congratulations, David - you've stirred up a couple of the liberals [moderately? very?]. and congrats on your martydom.
like you i enjoy i enjoy reading a variety of opinions - keeps my mind limber, and arm's-length from the echo chamber of some of the podcasts i listen too.
what's wrong with asking for a survey? EZ could have ignored the suggestion; or responded with something like: no, no point.
as to 'why have this poll?' i would reply: why have a poll on whether caitlan collins could play in the NBA? why have a poll on what age we consider senior citizenship begins? why have polls on on the tweets of the week?
I believe David L. needs this survey to justify his martyrdom from the exposure to multiple liberals.

(But Laurence fears I am "spying for someone"???)
