Gonna jump out on a limb but I don’t expect to see a lot of progs in here doing the “conservatives see reality in black & white” or the “only a sith deals in absolutes” bits. The “it’s more complicated, life is full of nuance, you’re too dumb to see that” ppl are projecting.https://twitter.com/TeamPelosi/status/1044274212683345926 …

1/Mhmm Growing up I was quickly taught that whenever I tried to explain why I did something stupid, that was just what we called ‘an excuse’ and was not acceptable. I should know what I did wrong and I ought to be ashamed, apologize, and never do it again.

2/At the same time, I was taught that I could never fully understand others’ situations and should just listen to them and not judge them. What was called ‘an excuse’ when I did it was considered valid when others did it. Somehow the b/w mentality inflicted on me stuck more.
