Your reply to my response is utter nonsense, of course, with no factual basis for any of its contentions whatsoever. This, all too typically of *today's* left, you don't deign to provide a single specific to back your bile, e.g. on "irrationalism, and resentments". It is today's left which is doing the most teeing off on the core values of the Enlightenment, as laid out by folks like Locke and Hume, and nowadays backed by folks like Haidt and Weinstein, but in some key respects subtly sabotaged by folks like Pinker.
