I guess I understood the metaphor and why I always thought I was a Democrat.

I saw the metaphor of the coyot and the tortoise for me as a kid like this. All humans during childhood are on a playground. Some folks get a long with folks and have fun, others have stress they press that stress, and some folks stop the folks who have stress from pressing.

Basically, I was the protector, that is how I have seen the Democrats, the anti trust folks, safety net types etc.

So the tortoises where some of my best friends cripples, and other kids that did not fit in with the marketing kids. As such, I was the one as the marketable kid, that would stop bullie types from literally picking on the tortoises for their attention time. In which would allow them to play free and enjoy their recesses, as the teachers do not always stop everything like teasing and other small things that are so big to the children.

As for the coyot metaphor was I knew who the predators where, and I saw them as below me, and I did not waste my intelligence on them as I saw the teachers as the bigger predators, who wanted to grade me.

Now that I am older though bloods been on my hands months on watch with intelligence, it is different, it is a much bigger play ground now.

and no smart one I do not see the Communist as the teachers. I see them as the much bigger predator to worry about.
