No, but they all think they are. They all have convictions, and many of them have good intentions. When I first tried to understand the divide by listening to all sides, I realized they all attempted to distinguish themselves from their enemies. But they aren't different. Their opinions are, but their approach to the world is the same - use the system to suppress the agenda, speech, or rights of their enemies. They all think they're full of illuminating virtue, and they all assume the label they've placed on others is justified. They're also blind to how they're being steered by forces much larger and more powerful than them. To throw Huffington Post up against Fox News and claim that either of them has a right to authority is ludicrous.
