Hell <a tabindex=\"-1\"><\/a>no, he will deny that anything has a nature, and affirm that everything is subject to social construction. For example, a typical leftist will state that a conservative black is a traitor to his race. Now that makes no sense. &#39;Traitor&#39; is a political notion; &#39;race&#39; is not. Race is not like political affiliation. You can quit your party, and if you are a Democrat you should; you can&#39;t, however, quit your race.
