Denial, a tendency to conformism, a willingness to disregard the evidence, a habit of ducking responsibility, a blindness to mere experience in the face of the overwhelming evidence of theory: these might sound ominously familiar to observers of contemporary Western life.
Not a political statement: a reality for both groups who sit on the outer fringes furthest from the centre on many debates and those who are in the centre. I.e. A fundamental human failing to be constantly aware of and on guard against but with balanced recognition of the earlier statment: the duality working in balanced unity is key to success: a wave requires the crests and the troughs otherwise there is no wave.
