Actually, it's a sane liberal begging their fellow leftists to stop being so intolerant, dismissive and condescending towards anyone who disagrees with them.
But thanks for providing a textbook example of the smugness that the writer is talking about. The left does not have an exclusive monopoly on "reason," and ridiculing anyone who disagrees with you is not "appealing to reason."

I didn't say the left had any sort of monopoly on reason--I know better--but this article is incredibly tedious, and so is arguing with you. The part of the left that does habitually appeal to reason finds a paucity of valid counter argument. No one can argue from facts and with logic as to why we should tolerate any sort of influence from supernatural religion in government or social policy, just as one example. I appeal to reason, the religious do not and cannot.
By the way, it is impossible that you haven't realized the author is describing the exact same, smug sense of intellectual authority with which you constantly regard leftists in general. I hope you can take a moment to realize just how often you resort to immediately ridiculing those you disagree with. Rightists in general do this constantly. Consider for a moment how many times you've used or read the word Libtard (or how often you have called Sanders senile, or uneducated, because he disagrees with you on economic terms).

A self described lefty feminist decrying those on the left who appeal to reason.
