“...Native American protesters, one of whom found himself in the midst of the high-schoolers.”
It looks like the author left us a nice example of ideology impacting reason.
There is zero possibility of watching the video in question and coming to the conclusion that the Native American “found himself” there.
The video clearly shows him marching directly up to one of the boys while beating his drum in the boys face.
It’s a really strange force, an ideology so powerful in one’s ego that one can ignore all facts and reason, even when pretending to reason about such phenomena.
- happytoexplain 8y agoWhile I agree generally, I think it's ironic that you have a conviction that you seem to feel strongly about that there is only one absolute, one-sided truth on this topic (not that absolute one-sided truths don't exist in simple cases, but to me this is a pretty perfect example of an ideologically emotional occurrence that is not absolutely one-sided).
