Yet you think the left is worse. That's what I take issue with.

I engage in doublethink. It's everywhere. And no, not with politics. With other things outside it.

What makes the internet so awful in 2019? Victim-blaming and rape apologia. When you're treating a victim of repeated assault as a monster over a few mistaken beliefs and putting a sympathetic face on her attackers, then you KNOW you're doing something wrong. I mean, Reddit is walking proof of this.
Reddit. Walking proof of what?

Make your case.

The things that make them worse are the doublethink they use to excuse themselves from their own claimed standards and the moral certitude they use to fool themselves into thinking they are somehow good people for doing all the horrible things they do. Their counterparts on the right tend to at least acknowledge that they are horrible people and just don't care.
That doesn't make them worse lol. Assholes are assholes. That kinda logic bodes well with Klingons or Farangis, who take principals like honor or profit and fetischize them.

That has nothing to do with what AX was talking about.

And it's not "society." It's some company that severs ties. And the same thing happened to James Gunn.

They're a part of human civilization, but they aren't PEOPLE. Not individuals. Certain laws are being passed to treat them as if they were.

Corporations are treated legally as individual entities. They always have been.
