It’s kind of awful to realise how much peoples ability to reason critically is distorted by ideology. It’s like suddenly everyone is taking crazy pills. Admittedly it is much worse online than in the real world, for whatever reason.
Yes! Finally, somebody says it! The people who want to end the exploitation of the working class carried out by the bourgeoisie are really basically the same as the people who want to maintain that system of exploitation! After all, they both call each other bad people, both think that they are correct, and both resort to violence to settle it! I’ve been working on an extension of horseshoe theory called “Polarized Principles are Balanced”, or PPB; link to a short introduction.
I mean I consider the actions of one group better than another group doing the same action because of their political leaning, not just based on the action. I think this is ok but it’s important to check yourself sometimes because you can end up defending some awful shit if you’re not careful, see libs and Ukraine etc.

the wise man bowed his head solemnly and spoke: “theres actually zero difference between good & bad things. you imbecile. you fucking moron”
I think my thinking is distorted by left wing ideology, and recognising that is important, even if it’s based
I mean, that’s a strange take because the left has historically been on the side of the powerless

Wrong
Everything in moderation, except for the phrase “everything in moderation” right?
