I'm guessing you disapprove of some of the things polymathwannabe lists, much as PMWB does, but think others are fine. It might be more interesting to know which.
I disapprove of assigning labels on the basis of checklists to start with, the same labels that polymathwannabe professes to dislike in his first sentence.
Any particular reason you ask? I'm not a big fan of purity/political correctness/ideological orientation tests either. Got to focus on the individual, y'know.. :-P
I can't see why you'd have posted as you did if you didn't want to (1) point out what you see as deficiencies in PMWB's list of alleged features of bigots and/or (2) tell us something about yourself; but what you've said so far doesn't provide enough information to identify the alleged deficiencies or determine much about you. So it seems like you haven't done what you intended to.
Also, I'm curious.
But I did: see the grandparent post. I just went one meta level up.
I also generally dislike the "people who believe <positions I disagree with> are <an insult>" lists.
Anyway, sorry, I'm not going to go down the list and jot down my attitude towards each point. It looks like a waste of time.
On that we agree.
