@jeffjarvis yeah one of those sides recognizes the concept of humility most the time
-
@Catriona @jeffjarvis Or they externalize that shame and become violent and unhinged, eventually turning to mass murder.
@Jumpmed @Catriona @jeffjarvis That seems to happen whether they’re ashamed or not, I’m not sure shame is the real factor

@jeffjarvis hell, the generational project since at least the early 70s has been to ensure people were not ashamed of "being right wing" and, indeed, acting like a bunch of dickheads

@jeffjarvis And we in Europe are also surprised that our rather conservative social democratic parties are already seen as ‘left-wing’ in the USA. The normal left then becomes the extreme left. 🤭
Couldn't stop to search the article. OMG this is so bad on so many levels! A normal left party as "radicals", conservatives with left ideas??? Journalism for the bin.

@jeffjarvis as an unashamed communist – in its core meaning, a union of free people – I can only say:
Do we? Because it certainly doesn’t feel like it…

@jeffjarvis Apparently, the left wing thinks life is a bed of roses, too! Shameless.

@jeffjarvis This is fake, right? If the editors want to shed a bad light on left politics they would use a picture of a riot or something. Not of two ladies buying flowers in Germany.

@jeffjarvis Why would you feel shame for wanting a level playing field and to patch exploits?
-
The 'far' left is really just 1970s-style social democracy and only extreme in the context of forty-odd tears of venal neoliberalism and a New Gilded Age.
@ReggieHere oh yea the classic "all our actions are justified because bla bla".
Pepper spraying, beating and raping someone outside of a bar that says "no homophobia,racism,sexism,hate" and then making his life a public space is also justifiable, it is for a good cause -
