I'd like you to address it to point out my biases which I hold very valuable. I won't assume you're wrong if you would like to address it directly. If not continue to blow it off.The problem isn't that your view matches any demo, but the contents -of- that view. That much ought to be obvious, at least insofar as you having this discussion with me.
Quote:2. Affirmative action in practice can unjustly discriminate.If you say so.
Quote:3. The actions of both sides do galvanize sides. Extremism breed extremism and especially in the realm of emotionalism. You don't really believe reactions happen in a vacuum do you? push back happens out of selection bias and antipathy. Apathy is not a cause of anything other than indecision, it is a null position. There is some injustice in inaction inherently so most see inaction as a negative, but it doesn't galvanize simply for being a null position instead of an extreme.There were racist trolls in the world long before there were sjws. Apathy is the cause of a great deal of misfortune, always has been.
Quote:4. If you want to leave out SJws then let's talk about the nuclear race or use atheism as an example. The methods you use to get justice do NOT always justify the means. I'm not seeking refuge from anything, nor have you pointed at anything that would cause cognitive dissonance.I don't expect it to cause to dissonance. Dissonance only arises when a person consciously realizes that they've got two cross purpose ideas floating around in their heads.
You're of the view that tolerance is intolerant and affirmative action is reverse discrimination. You seem like the kind of guy who has just the one set of ideas floating around in his head...lol.
