I'd agree that the extremes of any movement can be assholes. I don't think it just applies to people seeking social justice. I'm a big believer in the horseshoe theory when it comes to political continuum: If we travel far-left enough, we find the very same sneering, nasty and reckless bully-boy tactics used by the far-right.


But related to your point above on police brutality, you have assholes that summarily dismiss the Eric Garner case when it comes to police brutality. Which tends to tell us more about them than it does about the actual issue.

All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.


I never met anyone who didn't have a very smart child. What happens to these children, you wonder, when they reach adulthood?
