I didn't read the entire article but agree Seinfeld was extremely leftist.

The show could be really funny and at times hilarious but they really treated conservatism in the worst possible light.

That is, not even worthy of being considered as an option.

Casual sex was so totally approved of that it wasn't given a second thought. They approved of abortion so much that everyone simply agreed not to eat at some Pizza place because the owner was against abortion.

Sort of like I refuse to eat at a restaurant which got an F in it's last health inspection.

I quit watching because it is so insidious. It clearly treats the radical left and extreme lack of sexual morality as so much a "given", that no other option is even worth considering.The fact that they do not "preach" is what makes it so dangerous. They just slip it in.

The fact that it is well done makes it that much more dangerouos.

I guess you never saw Elaine and Puddy go to a priest for their counselling. He told them, in no uncertain terms, that they're both going to hell.

Of course the show reflected the largely promiscuous society in which is was set. But none of the characters moral shortcomings went unpunished.

They approved of abortion so much that everyone simply agreed not to eat at some Pizza place because the owner was against abortion.

You obviosuly missed the glee with which Jerry loved testing Elaine's newfound committment to only supporting "pro choice" people. From inquiring of Poppy in the middle of a meal in his restaurant, to asking about the status of her new boyfriend, the mover.

Again, for those who didn't seem to get the memo, these characters are not put out there in order to emulate.
