I think the concept of a political ideology needs to die. People not identifying with them and instead listening to peoples actual ideas is a good thing. Essentially everyone has a unique set of values shaped by their experience, they should listen to and interpret the ideas of others based on those values- instead of trying to categorize them and build an identity off them. Its a similar problem to the DSM, and leads to tribalism.
I think way more people are questioning authority figures, though that might be recency bias.
When before the lies were the narrative.
They exist to categorize ideas and people into neat little boxes, rather than actually evaluate individual ideas. They are also totally ineffective for communication, when each boxer disagrees where and what the boxes are.
Where did I say that?
When did I do that? Instead I'm stating my own opinions, and I'm happy to hear yours.
When did I try to stop that, I'm one of the nerds I was talking about.
"I believe it is their opinion,", genius. The irony is frankly uncomfortable.
Great response
