“Superior” is also such a red flag, just using it unqualified like that as if to imply that any ideology is just comprehensively superior at everything, and not the product of a situation. Like sure, our ideology has better predictive and analytical tools at its disposal. You could say technically in these areas (and morally) it’s superior, but who just thinks in these terms offhand? Idk, maybe im not doing a great job articulating this but superiority talk turns people off, and we don’t need to indulge in it anyway because we are blessed and cursed with correctness.
saw that and had a weird feeling too! thought i was just being pedantic since nothing to really pin down, but i feel like the connotation of that word for anything to do with humans, cultures, beliefs systems etc is inherently fashy
also hate the way this person types like they’re trying to reach a word count in an essay. “Yet, in contrast,” PICK ONE!!
