\nI didn’t find it terribly anger-producing. Some sadness. Mostly at the cultural disjunction, and the failure of just about everyone involved to see it without rancor.

\nyeah, that’s true. that event didn’t do much to bring the two sides together. I didn’t like everything that was said for ‘my side’.

What really struck me about the article is the difference in perception. How all perception comes through a filter, and moral judgements are applied so instantly. And coming at it from the opposite side, I know how it works for many of us lefty marchers. Righteous anger is a dangerous sentiment, no matter who is wearing it.<\/p>\n

Can’t help but apply it to my earlier interactions with Shannon. Not that my opinions have changed. But I’ll probably send some sort of fence-mending message in the none-too-distant future. <\/p>\n

And a reminder that there are human beings on the other side of the issue. Even if there are radical disjunctions in our frames of mind. <\/p>\n

I don’t know whether or not the author of the article is permanently or temporarily lost in their own perspective and unable to see another side. But I’d like to think non-agreeing understanding is possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
