it rly has nothing to do with morality, or at least it doesn’t have to obviously it’s awkward to admit you advocate policies that ate rly bad for lots of ppl whose votes you want but “awkward” != “evil”

in fact it is the ppl who think they are just discussing empirical policy like good pragmatists who have a hyper-moralized conception of politics bc any info that would help ppl relate empirics to their own interests is subversion, fatal to democracy, etc etc

so they never stop policing ppl who veer on the border of mentioning who-whom in elite social settings it’s a subtle social pressure, a laugh, a frown when they don’t know who you are they call you a nazi and demand total ostracism, even violence
