Those in the (libertarian)-conservative camp believe progressivists ignore certain sorts of basic facts that matter (about human nature, how institutions work, the motives of non-Western movements and states); while (libertarian)-conservatives have ideas that progressivists take as markers of evil (and of ignorance and stupidity) because they contradict their own markers of goodness (and wisdom and knowledge). Hence the latter’s particularly notable tendency to cherry-pick moral imperfections to make much play of: even engaging in startling segues from one deemed moral imperfection to another when awkward facts are brought up. Excellent post from a rational Aussie. Ahem.
