My tribe is wrong. I expect it to be wrong. I don't have a tribe because they're all correct. I have a tribe because I'm just one person, and I can't do anything by myself. So I make alliances with people with whom I can find common ground. I support their goals as best I can, even when they're wrong, because I think there will be a net benefit overall. That's an inevitable consequence of trying to govern a nation of 300,000,000 very disparate people. Now... it just so happens that I think that the other "tribe" is not merely wrong, but deranged. That is an extremely uncomfortable place for me to be, and I very much do not wish to believe it. Unfortunately, I've been unable to avoid that conclusion. They, of course, feel the same about me. Which means that at least one of us is right. I'm genuinely unclear on how to proceed about that. I don't think it will be solved by making my tribe less wrong. All that accomplishes is to alienate my tribe and give me even fewer allies; it doesn't seem to attract me any new ones. There should be room for us to sincerely disagree. Being wrong is OK, as long as the overall process tends to settle on a reasonable-enough answer most of the time. Unfortunately, that seems to much to ask, and I'm at a loss for a fallback.
