That is decidedly contrary to my experience with most progressives, who tend to assume anyone who disagrees with them must be either ignorant or evil, and display none of their self-proclaimed empathy\* when dealing with ideological opponents.

I’ve noticed that when someone DemonTree perceives as a left-winger takes the time and effort to explain things to her in a way she gets, she is unable to thank them without throwing in jabs at the left in general. I don’t want to go back and find all the examples, but I know I’ve seen it from her at least three times.

It’s not a huge deal, but it is annoying, uncharitable, and it shows how strongly she clings to her preformed notions about people.
