@DaveedGR So Q is what kind of brutishness is most dangerous? Banks running things, when they are a FAR bigger threat? @papicek @nadabakos
@DaveedGR I think you're being defensive. I agree you're not exclusively focused on VNSAs. Most "wolves" are. Why? @papicek @nadabakos

@emptywheel@papicek@nadabakos Got it. You came across as accusatory. Let's drop that particular angle, then. -
@DaveedGR Let me restate. There is part of centrist, normative society that prioritizes VNSAs over much bigger threats.@papicek@nadabakos

@emptywheel@papicek@nadabakos I'll say in general that I think extreme poles (wolf or bunny) tend to de-emphasize things they shouldn't. -
@DaveedGR OK. Maybe we're making progress on poles on what they deemphasize?@papicek@nadabakos

@emptywheel@papicek@nadabakos And that gets back to my original point: polarization impoverishes the public sphere and our politics. -
@DaveedGR Sure. But that doesn't change my point, which is that one extreme position is normative right now.@papicek@nadabakos
