you gotta realize that your average person on this forum is right of center. think about it, only people from at least middle class (and normally upper-middle class +) families can afford to be a real computer geek, and those that work in the industry tend to make above-average wages. obviously the college kids aren't rolling in dough, but you can bet their parents are doing alright if they're in college. not only that, computer geeks are disproportionally white or asian, who are in turn disproportionally right of center. next, the companies that employ many people on this board are reliant on the ability for big buisnesses to have lots of power. people who post here are here because of the benefits that conservative viewpoints have brought them. it's not that surprising that they're going to be hating on someone who is so incredibly far left.
post about NRA filmstrips on a forum devoted to recycling tips and you'll get a similar response, but the other way around. it's all about the crowd you're preaching to.
