This post reminded me of this video by Bret Weinstein interviewing Douglas Murray. The whole thing is good, but you can pick it up at 35:00 for the conversation to talk about having the type of conversation you propose; questioning an argument that doesn’t make sense. At around 38-39 minutes, Murray discusses you can have an argument on POLICY because everything becomes PERSONAL.
I just had an epiphany, which is not really a revelation. We often joke that liberalism is a mental disorder. The thing is, the left is fueled and driven by bad psychology. The bad psychology that to ask someone to question their belief systems or to disagree with someone sets off an infantile rage, which is why a lot of good people stand down to the mob. It’s as if our country is throwing a giant tantrum, and conservatives are waiting for the tantrum to blow over. But it won’t. The bratty left needs law and order.
