Summary

Are Bow-Ties pretentious? Who is the least civil person on Twitter? What is the hippo scale? Fungus or dry skin?   I talk about all of the above, and then basically explain that I told you so--that the death of civility has caused a good chunk of our problems, and that the solution is to live back up to the principles that we always knew we should.   In particular:  1) Accountability is a must. Personal responsibility is the old-conservative way.  2) Basic kindness is still the best antidote.  3) We must actively truth-tell, and never believe our own deceptions.  Also, don't disagree less, disagree better.   Link to Adam Kinzinger's new page: https://www.country1st.com Post-Register Editorial: "This is not Personal Responsibility." https://www.postregister.com/opinion/editorials/this-is-not-personal-responsibility/article_b582816f-be00-585e-8852-f6a410b423d2.html  Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmiIlIH-kEE 

Episode Description

Are Bow-Ties pretentious? Who is the least civil person on Twitter? What is the hippo scale? Fungus or dry skin?

I talk about all of the above, and then basically explain that I told you so--that the death of civility has caused a good chunk of our problems, and that the solution is to live back up to the principles that we always knew we should.

In particular:

1) Accountability is a must. Personal responsibility is the old-conservative way.

2) Basic kindness is still the best antidote.

3) We must actively truth-tell, and never believe our own deceptions. Also, don't disagree less, disagree better.
