Taking a Stand

I thought this was a nicely written piece by Brene’ Brown on Speaking Truth to Bullshit. While the CONTENT is on guns-rights-control—debate, it is the treatment on emotionality, non-critical thinking (ideologies), projection, and b.s. which I find helpful. Substitute the content issue of “guns” with any other issue and the message holds.

From a systems theory perspective, a good treatment on reactivity, how emotions hijack principled thinking, and on not falling into the danger of an unreasonable faith in reasonableness.
