I love this point. It is also why I don't stay mad at conservatives, talk to people who are apparently on the road to fascism or some twisted monarchist crap (many conservatives, ancaps, right wing libertarians), talk to people who may have similar social beliefs to me but do not seem to perceive the back-handed way they refer to groups of the disadvantaged (many liberals), and consistently roll in the dirt with my fellow piggies
We're all victims in some way of the degradation taking place all around us, we just don't always engage the correct villains
