    That would be a perfect encapsulation of the Trump presidency: The most peaceful,
    non-warlike president in almost 100 years...is a war criminal.

    You don’t think such-and-such because you reasoned logically to that conclusion; you think such-and-such because you are a white, heterosexual, middle-class American female, and so forth. In this way, totalitarians do not persuade or refute their
    interlocutors with reasoned arguments. They merely impute bad faith to their opponents and refuse to engage in meaningful debate. They forcibly cut their adversaries off from the sphere of enlightened conversation. One does not bother arguing against
    such dissidents; one simply steamrolls them after placing them outside the realm of acceptable opinion.

    One man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter.

    Which is why our political views are completely incompatible.
