I mean you’re not wrong. It’d be great to live in a perfect world. This method has worked great for leftists and liberals alike in winning friends.

Perhaps because I’ve walked the line between workers rights and blue collar backgrounds I have a little more empathy for meeting people where they’re at then demanding they adhere to academic standard. I’ve never found arrogance, perceived or real, to be a very helpful tool in organizing or building community. Flies and honey and all that jazz.
