[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] This is, incidentally, why I think the F word is one the Left really ought to avoid, since by framing the argument as "look, these bad things are just like these other bad things," it is left open to the refutation "wait, this other bad thing isn't like the first thing at all; therefore the first thing isn't bad." Look at the way critics of the recent Amnesty International report have fastened on to the word "gulag." Our prison camps aren't the same as Soviet gulags, therefore we're in the clear! Two bad things do not have to be alike to both be bad, and I wish we'd see more facts and fewer metaphors when it came to things like this. [/QB][/QUOTE]
