I think a lot of your work is brilliant, but I beg you to question your biases. Why is the unfair treatment of a famous/affluent white man, whose “punishment” is retirement, the locus of Sullivan’s rage, rather than the torrent of brutality/cages black/brown kids endure?

This is not just about one man. This is about Sullivan's hope that we might be moving away from the far-left racism that has become acceptable. This issue has an enormous gravity to it that will have dangerous, society-wide consequences if not addressed.

A gem. Tribalism, our primal brain clashing with modern ideals of equality - science, sociology offers no solution. Reconciliation of differences due to historical chance, discrimination or genetics( not proven) with liberty is tough. For solutions, I am biased towards meditation

My concept of meditation here is broad. For me this includes the best ideals of Christianity( minus the superstition), Buddhist/old Hindu concept of silent reflection/meditation (a uniquely eastern concept), with some elements of muslim Sufi mysticism and Martin Buber’s mysticism

Excellent writing. For the pessimists: know we, America & humanity in general, have been more deeply divided before. What would Lincoln say to Klein’s offer of abatement via meditation? How can we appeal to the angels of our better nature?

I will offer one method to appeal to the better angels of our nature & abate political polarization: service.

Only thing I found odd was a call to return to Christianity. What we need is a return to civil axioms of interracial brotherhood and a collective benefit of the doubt. Christianity is not the engine I would suggest.

This article by Andrew should be printed, read in silence and then re-read at least 3 times with a gap of 3 months. Also just ordered the books by Ezra Klein and Cladwell to better understand the existential crisis facing USA( and by extension the modern world).

This "functional liberal democracy" is a mythical construct. It can work for some high IQ people, on a small scale---Switzerland is pretty much the upper limit. Christian civilization is being destroyed by democracy, with clockwork predictability.
