My wife and I were recently discussing various events in the world. She was perplexed; it's as if the left has a special power to hold many contradictory things before the mind all at once.
I too find progressivism perplexing. Sometimes I think I understand how someone could think the way progressives do and see the world as they see it. I believe I have brief flashes of insight where I understand what it might be like to see the world in that way. And then it vanishes. The further the left progresses leftward, the more I simply have no idea how to relate.

Thomas Nagel once explored this very issue. His essay was called, "What Is It Like to Be a Bat?"
