If I could elaborate more I was just thinking of various statements of political philosophy that people have made to me in the past.
“The Golden rule is the one thing that all religions have in common.”
“Liberals just want to spread the misery around.”
“What we need is facts and logic, not emotion.”
“Liberty, equality, fraternity.”
“An injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
I can’t tie this all up in a bow but there are some interesting themes and counter themes there. If I was a philosophy major I might be able to make more sense.
