I feel that “outgroup dumb” is shitposting but it’s from a real poll.

tbh the more I learn and experience that's most of the human experience. I had a Minister when I was young that said there's really only two human emotions, fear and love, and that without significant intervention fear pretty much always wins. I've been working in psychiatry for almost a decade now and there's lots of finer points to be made about human psychology but in the end it pretty much all does just boil down to fear and love.

He was an exceptionally good Minister, to the extent that for while I didn't understand how common it was for people to be deeply betrayed by a church leader. It was not uncommon for people in the community to genuinely compare him to Fred Rogers (who was incidentally also a Presbyterian minister). Very similar background, temperament, points of advocacy, and even appearance and mannerism; if they hadn't both been alive at the same time it almost might make me believe in reincarnation.
