One of the things I love about Purists (vs. certain other horological websites) is that politics are not welcome here, other than perhaps showing what watch a politician is wearing. Elizabeth Warren has nothing to do with this thread, nor should she. Normally I don't comment publicly on such things, but especially due to the current political climate (in the US, anyway), I place very high value on "virtual sanctuaries" like these forums. Believe me, I'm VERY tempted all the time to throw in little comments that reflect my own political views, but I have to refrain because it's always a slippery slope that has nothing to do with horology. That slippery slope is demonstrated here by the fact that, predictably, one person in this thread already took the bait and repeated that Elizabeth Warren reference -- which is how the slippery slope starts. Thank you for your understanding, and again, I otherwise love this thread and your contributions (not just here but elsewhere on these Forums)!
