The Hippie Two-Step

without comments

Six weeks later than promised, but hey.

Adam Kotsko has a great response to Hitchens’ latest on religion.

Likewise, I shall now describe the Hippie Two Step:

  1. Someone points out that the particular conception of nature of another culture held by the doctrinaire hippie is not really held by anyone as stated.
  2. Go on to blame the other culture for violating animal rights and the environment in general, so that their own beliefs are obviously superior and that one can’t be held accountable for detailed knowledge of the other culture.
