I don't need to (although I will after work), that video is supported by information from the AEI; a pro-corporatist, conservative think tank that has objective motives to dismiss the wage gap.

If you provide a credible source of statistical evidence against the pay-gap, I'll be inclined to take it more seriously.

Forming a mental blacklist of "this is stupid" for anything you don't agree with, and thinking anyone who doesn't agree with you "is part of the problem" (by the way, I didn't quite like that) is a dangerous mentality to have.

No, I'm not simply calling you out. It affects the best of us (it's why we all prefer some sources over others). But this attitude is exactly what is causing a decline in liberalism. Slog Bait said it best:

Stop with this. If you want to get someone on your side, you don't point an accusatory finger at them and call them the problem. That's how things got to where they are today. That's how you lose support. That's how people start viewing the movements you follow as violent exclusive cults. No one likes being accused of wrong doing if they don't understand why something they said or did could be construed as wrong.
