Its also true that those stuck in either side, fully, inextricably, are not very movable. <br />But there is a third immovable group that is even more frustrating and those are the ones who seem to ALWAYS over do the points you are raising here. I am not suggesting, because I do not know, that you are overdoing it. When folks wear the third way like a badge of honor and actively seek comments that may have an aspect of the left/right traditional paradigm that they can use to put down the comment because they claim the one making it is stuck in the less intellectual and more ignorant belief set of left right, when folks do that, they are actually worse than those stuck in the paradigm. Why? because they are not really thinking. They are reacting with a veneer of intellectualism and in-group-ism by virtue of NOT being in a group. <br />The nonconformist is the biggest conformist when they use those they see as conformist as what NOT to do or say. <br />These beliefs, regardless what they even are, must come organically, not reactive to the strawman of left and right that it seems some of the self perceived more clever of manosphere posters use as trampolines. <br />Its bad to mindlessly walk in one or another ideological sect, its equally mindless to reject an indivisual opinion of someone because it happens to fit one of the ideological sects.....its silly and juvenile. <br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4256367009985298221.post-43866691667670492052013-02-25T16:02:46.632-08:002013-02-25T16:02:46.632-08:00Keoni:

Emotionally, they dig in their heels and will go to almost any length from that point forward to defend their self-constructed system, no matter how much cognitive dissonance they must engage in to rationalize it.</i><br /><br />I thought this was brilliant insight.Sishttp://passionatechristianmarriage.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4256367009985298221.post-85702300300755604922013-02-22T06:22:52.233-08:002013-02-22T06:22:52.233-08:00I used to be an avid reader of National Review.

A few years ago someone sent us a link to Vox Populi and that started or brain pull out of the the left vs. right paradigm. It took a bit of time but everything he said and the places he sent us (Denninger, here, and others) made so much sense. <br /><br />My Dad has since lamented that we are surprisingly further to the right now than he is. We just smile and move on with our day. Minus a comment here and there we will not talk politics with him any more because he thinks we're a bit crazy. Though, every year, he seems to come a little bit more out of the blink and see what we are talking about. <br /><br />So, thank you. Thank you for the truth.
