Neely was an active threat to the other passengers, including many ethnic minorities. Daniel Penny is a hero but because of your Woke worldview everything is filtered through your "oppressor/oppressed" framework. People are treated not as individuals with equal intrinsic moral worth but as members of various identity groups whose worth depends on where they fall on the Woke hierarchy.

Your worldview really is despicable and antithetical to liberalism.

So then what term are people allowed to use for left identity politics? Or are you just trying to gaslight him?

Is that what it means to you? Seems to just mean generally "The shit I hate".

That’s what it means to everyone. That’s the definition of the word.

Hell no I’m not bored. I can see why this wouldn’t be fun for you though. The general direction of culture was very uncomfortable for me as a right winger for a long time. Things feel much better these days though. You can feel change in the air.
