This board may live in a post-intent world, and on some issues, that seemingly defective approach may, strangely, make sense. This is not one of those instances. Re bias: no intent, no bias. The effect, on which you’re focused, is another question. One strident progressives may school themselves on by googling the “law of unintended consequences.”

I'm sure it must be comforting in some way to have a belief system constructed entirely of ideas that you pulled out of your ass, but it must be also kind of gross.
