Ahhh, that old self-hating lefties nonsense.
What a waste of effort.
What a waste of effort.
I think the main problem with this line of thinking represented in this article (and maybe this is what you are getting at) is that the use of shame in political dialogue is a trait exclusive to the left. It has many parallels in conservative thinking, but maybe in ways that we have grown used to (e.g. values based on religious fundamentalism).
That is what I was getting at.
You're right though, it was very dismissive. I should know better.
I just tired of that same old 'us versus them', 'left versus right' back-and-forth, simplistic tribalism.
