Alt TextFour panel cartoon by Nathan W. Pyle with two bald eagles sitting in easy chairs. One is reading a newspaper while the other sips tea.

Tea-sipper: Do you think the Owl is a predator?

Reader: Of course not. He's never bothered me.

Tea-sipper: Exactly. (Pauses to sip tea) I don't know what Mr. Mouse was going on about.

Growing up in a white, blue collar (mostly Democrat) family, I'm ashamed to say that I've seen this bullshit first hand. Sometimes overtly. Even after marrying in to an upper middle class white collar (mostly Democrat) family, I'm ashamed to say that I've continued to see this bullshit first hand. It's just more subtle now.

I can't change people's minds, but at least I won't raise my kids this way. Absolutely not.

People having to learn first hand is the problem I see plaguing the world. You can't live 100 lifetimes, so we have to learn from other people's experiences too.

Well put. I completely agree
