Yes? No? Made this for an argument I was having elsewhere..

1. Yes!

2. I like it and I think this is a good Obama Group post.

We can't post elsewhere but we can post here. That has been made very, very clear. I am not complaining. Just accepting of the fact that that's the way it is. So, if people want to test these things here before they post on FB, etc., then I'm fine with it.

3. Exactly, I figured if this went into GD first I would be accused of flamebait etc etc

But now I know people here actually understand what I'm trying to say it may start making the rounds around the boards...

4. If I understand your point correctly

I think it would be better made with a third outer circle ODS Sufferers that the separate Progressives and Conservatives circles both intersected with (but not with each other). The way you have it now it says that people who are both progressive and conservative at the same time are ODS sufferers. Sorry if I misunderstood and that's actually what you mean.

Disclaimer: I'm somebody you would probably label an "ODS sufferer" and wouldn't normally post here, but I'm also a nerd and wanted to point this out since I saw your post on the front page. Hope that's ok.

5. Hmm. I looked at it like this.

The only point at which progressives and conservatives overlap is the small group of progressives who have ODS. I don't know exactly how to portray that in overlapping circles. But I think maybe I applied my assumption to the image rather than looking at it objectively. Thanks.

And, no, it's fine that you replied. Your intent is obviously good. More importantly, as far as I know you don't have a history of issues with the people here so there was no reason to doubt your motives for a second.

6. hmm

if that's what OP meant then I don't think either the original or my idea conveys it very well (IMO). I'll post if any ideas come to me (This is now an interesting representation problem to me, regardless of content :-D)

7. It's interesting to me as well. I confess I'm having flashbacks to sets

and subsets. So very simple yet they just don't really look cool on Facebook, at least not the problems I remember from when I was a kid. Little dots and overlapping circles and a sentence or two to explain them.

I guess you'd have to have color-coded dots to represent each group. The intersection of the circles would be for ODS. The blue dots within it would be the progressives, red for conservatives. Obviously there'd be many more red dots than blue.
