I think if you look back you will find that the statement made was that those tactics are found on the right being used by people in positions of power. So if you were to accurately remember rather than (purposefully?) misremember then you would have to say that all the people you have quoted have the same power and influence and audience as Ann Coulter/Rush Limbaugh/Michael Savage/etc. Which I think we both agree is just hilariously wrong.

For the authoritarian followers it will always be about personalities. A key tell is that they will often bring up other personalities that they think you are devoted to with the same fervor of their own. It's almost a given that whenever you bring up a negative about one of the right wing authorian followers beloved personalities they will bring up Clinton. It's a tactic that they use - go after personality - because it's what works on them.

However, I do agree that it is counterproductive to try and outCoulter Coulter. For one thing, she gets paid to do it.

Quote:

* addendum: To be very clear. You are conflating two claims into one. The first claim was that, for right-wing authoritarian followers, it will always be about the personality. Notice that there is nothing in that claim about people who are not right-wing authoritarian followers. It does not say that, for people who are not right-wing authoritarian followers, it will never be about personality.

The second claim was that there are no equivalent prominent people on the left who attack their opponents the way that many prominent people on the right do. Notice that there is nothing in this claim about everyone on the right or the left, only people in positions of prominence/influence.

IMHO, Hilary Clinton and Barak Obama are responsible for the actions of their respective staffs. I would consider both of them to presently be in positions of prominence.
David Geffen raised a boat load of money for Obama at his 'Giant Hollywood Fundraiser' and his most recent attack against the Clintons made every national entertainment show. I would consider him to be in a position of prominence.
South Carolina State Senator Robert Ford is certainley in a position of prominence in South Carolina.
James Carville is a nationally known pundit who regularly appears on television and movies. I would consider him in a position of prominence.

excerpted from nytimes article
...
Of course, not all buzz is good buzz. The commercial for Snickers — created by TBWA/Chiat/Day, part of the TBWA Worldwide division of Omnicom — drew intense criticism as well as some praise.

In addition to complaining that the Snickers commercial itself was homophobic, organizations like the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation and the Human Rights Campaign, also complained about video clips that went up after the game on the special Web site, which showed the two men committing additional violent acts against themselves and each other. There were also interviews with members of the Chicago Bears and Indianapolis Colts in which they offered disgusted reactions to the accidental kiss.

“As with all of our Snickers advertising, our goal was to capture the attention of our core Snickers consumer, primarily 18-to-24-year-old adult males,” said a spokeswoman for Masterfoods, Alice Nathanson. “Feedback from our target consumers has been positive, and many media and Web site commentators on this year’s Super Bowl lineup ranked the commercial among this year’s best.”

“We know that humor is highly subjective and we understand that some consumers have found the commercial offensive,” Ms. Nathanson said, adding: “Clearly that was not our intent. We do not plan to continue the ad on television or on our Web site.”

from AMERICAblog
Ad 4: "Wrench" (these are the actual names Snickers gave the ads). The two guys accidentally kiss, they say to each other again "quick, do something manly," and one guy proceeds to pick up a huge oversized wrench and violently attack the other guy, while the second takes the first and throws him under the hood of the car, slamming it down on his head. Yes, the appropriate reaction to a guy kissing you is to beat the crap out of the guy who kissed you. Maybe Snickers should rename this ad "Matthew Shepard."

As far as the NFL player's reactions though, what did they really expect? What John doesn't seem to understand is that there is still a majority of the people in the nation, and especially the world, who think that homosexuality is wrong.

I think right now that the gay community should be happy with the fact that gay kids can come out in school and not be found a week later swinging from a tree in the middle of the woods. I say, as long as there's no violence against gays anymore then they've already won. What is there to gain from grossing out people with homosexual ads who find homosexuality disgusting?

---

Quote:

I just think it was a dirty trick and bad form for them to blatently display a homosexual act on the one night of the year that garners the most consolidated viewership in America, ensuring that the maximum amount of people in the country were going to see it at the same time.

Ann Coulter has the explicit support of the Republican Party. Her comments have the explicit support of the Republican Party. By this point in time, when you hire her to come and talk, you know exactly what you're getting. The crowd reaction to her faggot comment was quite positive. They got exactly what they wanted and expected.

She has explicitly advocated violence against those who do not share her views. If you look at her vector it ends in lynch mobs.
