on the contrary I think it unfortunately makes perfect sense, I don't doubt that most neoliberals and centrists are genuine in many ways in their desire for a better world, as we all are!... but because of that imagine if you suddenly were being forced to come to terms with the fact that your ideology that you have made some kind of intellectual, material, philosophical, social or whatever sacrifice for wasn't helping make the world better... no... imagine that realization dawning on you like a jet black bird of prey... maybe all the corrections you made to the otherwise natural courses of things around you were actually contributing to this dark tide filling the empty spaces around you... and were did all the laughter go?....?
What would you do in that moment? You would probably instinctively run, that is what my kneejerk reaction would do. The responses you are seeing that are confusing in their bizarre fervousness need to unknow only look confusing because running away from the truth looks a peculiar way in conversations that are supposed to be two way streets.
