passive hostility and shrill anti-matter

MLK 2015 | Clarissa's Blog



What I am saying, specifically, is that the Western character structure is notable because of its shrillness and paranoia regarding earlier centuries colonialism, and that you can only expect black and white (good and evil) thinking and defensiveness of the most excrutiating sort if you try to openly discuss the topic. I can discuss it with Japanese because they do not see themselves as implicated, but Western people are either passively hostile (hence the downvoting without articulated intellectual commentary) or indeed very, very shrill.
