Hi. Thanks for the constructive engagement! In my case I downvoted because of the combination of coming across aggressive and me thinking that this was not an accurate identification of the problem plus being worried it’d promote certain bad discussion norms that are increasingly common in the left-leaning parts of the internet.
I appreciate the constructive engagement and the apology. Thanks.
Yeah I really appreciate you trying to prevent the bad discussion norms and keep good-faith conversations.
I’m left social liberal and very progressive but I often feel aggressive attitudes and whining (which I did) doesn’t solve racial disparities and inequality and often misses the problems. And these are attitudes that I feel are too common among white, rich, liberals. (This isn’t me trying to talk bad about white, rich, liberals or say they all do this. It’s just trends I’ve noticed since joining EA a bit over a year ago.)
