I used to be interested in ideology.

Now I'm only interested in outcomes.

I have not listened to the AA streams and I can see from some of the comments here and on your telegram that there are specific stressors to this discussion that I am not capturing, but I feel there are a couple of tracks running parallel at the moment, like they are pulling into a station: 1) liberal as a soup we swim in and pointless to deny. 2) right wing as failing to encapsulate Christianity and ethnicity. 3) the dominant tradition of the West being an expression of west-ness. And 4) right wing being a lens of reality that can get trapped in orientalism when developing hypotheses of action.

I appreciate you, Paul, for noticing the station we’ve stopped at and noticing that most in this sphere are shuffling with their bags from one platform to another and that the baggage has different contents than we expected when we boarded.
