Ironically enough, this was often the core of a lot of Bill's arguments, specifically with regard to his frustration that any deviation from what he saw as some leftist orthodoxy would get him labelled as right wing. I have some sympathy with that. Unfortunately, from this reasonable premise, and in his crusade against 'leftist identity politics' etc he would then start goading people and calling them 'snowflakes' and using the ridiculous language of the alt-right thereby scuppering his own premise.
