What i was trying to say in that bit, without saying it out loud, is that there were things - you're right, everything is very politicized these days, literally down to what kind of coffee you drink - that i used to fight with people about. and by the way, not just people like republicans and christians, but liberal friends of mine and very radical left-wing types, and alternative, indie types.

More From Patton Oswalt

I'm against obamacare, which is imposing radical change, and i would be against a conservative imposing radical change.... i don't think right-wing social engineering is any more desirable than left-wing social engineering... i don't think imposing radical change from the right or the left is a very good way for a free society to operate.
Thinking Engineering Wings
I've always thought the american eagle needed a left wing and a right wing. the right wing would see to it that economic interests had their legitimate concerns addressed. the left wing would see to it that ordinary people were included in the bargain. both would keep the great bird on course. but with two right wings or two left wings, it's no longer an eagle and it's going to crash.

Welcome to fight club. the first rule of fight club is: you do not talk about fight club. the second rule of fight club is: you do not talk about fight club! third rule of fight club: if someone yells “stop!”, goes limp, or taps out, the fight is over. fourth rule: only two guys to a fight. fifth rule: one fight at a time, fellas. sixth rule: the fights are bare knuckle. no shirt, no shoes, no weapons. seventh rule: fights will go on as long as they have to. and the eighth and final rule: if this is your first time at fight club, you have to fight.

Pretty much all comic-book people, like all hollywood people, for the most part, are pretty liberal. i think especially uk writers. alan moore is probably the most radical guy you'll ever meet. i grew up loving those guys, so my heroes, as a kid, were radical cartoonists, essentially. i couldn't help but - i grew up in a left-wing household. but i do think it's fun, writing right-wing characters. i've found it interesting, just as a writer, to get inside their heads and make them likeable.

I'm so happy and relieved for the indie spirited film world because ... i don't even know if it's indie, it's just alternative cinema that's just different than what the studios are doing and it's a big variety in that category. everyone always is complaining about the film industry but i think it's important to acknowledge when it's actually a pretty good time when that comes back around. i'd be remiss not to say, "hey, it's a pretty good era right now for these reasons," and maybe that doesn't last or maybe it does, but i will acknowledge it.
Thinking Important Different
There are two forms of populism, left-wing populism and right-wing populism. right-wing populism requires the denigration of an "other." left-wing populism tends to be about the haves and have-nots.

The new pornography is left-wing; and the new pornography is a vast graveyard where the left has gone to die. the left cannot have its whores and its politics too.
Wings Gone Graveyard
My constant prayer, these days, as i start my backswing is, 'oh, please let me swing slowly.' the trouble is that sometimes i wonder whether i swing at all; whether i am not strictly a chopper.

You will remember when a bird crashed through the window and fell to the floor. you will remember, those of you who were there, how it jerked its wings before dying, and left a spot of blood on the floor after it was removed. but who among you was first to notice the negative bird it left in the window? who first saw the shadow that the bird left behind, the shadow that drew blood from any finger that dared to trace it, the shadow that was better proof of the bird's existence than the bird ever was?

And left-wing people are always sad because they mind dreadfully about their causes, and the causes are always going so badly.
