        Conventionally-attractive Lebanese women journalists w/ thirst trap profile pics in front of Nasrallah murals who post conspiracy theories about Duterte to their thousands of thirsty "anti-imperialist" male fans form a distinct genre of twitter that needs a nice, concise name.

        This is quite evocative of MacIntyre’s “After Virtue”, whose first chapter is about the “shrill and interminable” nature of moral discussions today. He also insists that the solution involves a rediscovery of who we are individually and societally.
