You should be just as wary and skeptical of yourself as you are of other people. You *are* other people.

Similar (tho overall less bad I think) upbringing here, & I remember thinking there was something wrong with me for not seeing what was wrong with gay people or pagans or atheists etc. It didn't feel right but I did think it was right and was warped in some horrible way.

It was right and *I* was warped. Damn. Messed up the whole sense of the tweet.

Well said! It's true the bigots of old didn't think they were bigots. They had justifications! The Nazis even had 'science' about it ffs! The new mob think they're special because they've got it sussed. But they're no different to their ideo-forebears.

The new racists think they have the moral high ground because they are correcting historical wrongs. They are correcting nothing and are creating more wrongs in the name of their equity crusade.
