Tucker Carlson again ridicules the "Kagans".

One of us is obsessed with my alleged sense of moral superiority. Hint: I fucking know better.

What is it that you know better?

The details of my moral failings. And no, I will not get more specific.

But what you call my sense of moral supoeriority is just a willingness to say x is good and y is bad. But you cannot help being just as willing to apply values, you just think you've found a way to be cool about it, with your nifty egalitarian slogan.

But "better than none" identifies a good thing, right?

"Egual to all" is likewise held up as desirable and good.

On the other hand, if someone has a sense of 'moral superiority,' that is bad.

One value judgement after another. Rampant morality!

What I've been posting about the common good isn't about your self perceived religious based failings. They are not for me to see/judge. And don't worry, I've no interest in meeting that personal demon. Although, on the big screen a pythonesque version would work for me.

Sure, the Pythons might be able to make even my banal foibles entertaining.

FWIW, we have a one party government with two visible branches.

Fail.

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization or Atlantic Alliance (NATO) is an international political and military organization with the aim of guaranteeing the freedom and security of its members through political and military means.

Thanks for the grade.

The Banal Foibles Demon being not the least bit frightening? From the Python perspective that might just work.

But recall that Hannah Arendt was not amused at all by the banality of evil.

Well, at least your demon is always the lessor of two evils
