Liberal Writer Seeks "A Safer Space" Where She's Not Required To Offer Evidence And Logic For Her Beliefs

Community-based reality feveh!

I’m a little bit tired of spending so much of my time defending the most basic principles of what I stand for. It serves to distract. What I need is a safer space where I don’t lose so much energy justifying why social and environmental justice are worth spending a lot of society’s money on. What I want is a space where these ideas are a given and the debate is about how best to actualize them…

And what space is that woman now writing in in which she does not feel "safe" and protected from factual and logical challenges to her claims?

The UK Guardian, which may in fact be at this point be more red than Pravda. It is in the UK Guardian, of all places, she feels not quite safe enough to explore her ideas about "actualizing" her political priorities.
