You people...,wait,I guess I see it all the way around as projection, not denial. With science looming as perhaps the most bigly casualty in sustained cultural identity political warfare. Its a pretty fragile democratic institution actually. Was trying to think of this quote all day. Finally remembered it. "Carl Jung called this his shadow work. He said we never see others. Instead we see only aspects of ourselves that fall over them. Shadows. Projections. Our associations. The same way old painters would site in a tiny dark room and trace the image of what stood outside a tiny window in the bright sunlight. The camera obscura. Not the exact image, but everything reversed or upside down." Its's from the guy who wrote "Fight Club". seems to fit right now, and in reality has for quite some time. We all need to wrap our bad shit up in a medicine bundle and burn it in front of whatever we find sacred.
..Ewe people...
