One quote I remember regarding “civility” was something like “We need to make civility a pejorative.”
If you’re acting “civilly” it means you have the privilege of doing so. You’re on the “winning side” or perceive yourself to be. For those being actively threatened or attacked the expectation shouldn’t be to behave “civilly.”
It’s the whole “gallant in victory, valiant in defeat” bullshit. It makes sense when war is a sport for rich people, nothing else. We are in the receiving end of a war is extermination. FUCK CIVILITY. Terroristic in defeat, “we make no excuses for our terror” in victory.
Peak liberal “civility” politics. Kirk’s legacy is fascism and bigotry.
