No words are adequate to express my deep appreciation of this writing, reasoning as I do as a student of human behavior. The conflicts engendered by the tension between Individualism v Collectivism and the laws that have evolved over time in human societies to resolve the conflicts provide many lessons and shed plenty of light on possible means to resolve the conflicts without giving up on the First Principle in favor of the Final Solution.

Even as the threshold of tolerance in mutually inimical world views and moral values appears time and again it could not be placated by palliative or curative means, I believe CGC is a realistic exception to that pessimistic view. I tweeted a detailed response on X via Prof Vermeule's RT of this article.
