Sauce for the Kettle

Or possibly the pot is calling the goose a gander. Or something. Anyway, Tacitus says

Well obviously there are. Not like so much of the leftist internet commentariat. Man are they ever homogenous.

But I forgive Tacitus, partly because he is a great Roman historian, but mostly because I would forgive anyone who could write a sentence like “I think I have a pretty good handle on the rules of thumb on this.”
