There's a steelmanned version of that question that isn't completely repugnant, something like "is there a submissive-authoritarian component driving some apparent political contradictions on the left", but also he's an asshole.

TBH I don't think this is exactly true. Socially important falsehoods are often protected by constructed sacredness. People willing to transgress them are almost by definition assholes, ie people willing to give offense.

Very well said. There are two reasons I dislike "counterproof by 'he's an asshole'": 1) it's a category error 2) ALL important new truths will be brought by either assholes or "assholes" (the latter meaning non neurotypicals who can't understand what rules they're breaking)
