|content=...sheā€™s amazing. So there you have it. Iā€™m thoroughly multicultural but because of that, I learned through that lens why Patriotism is not to be discarded when you find your nation has lied to you. Instead itā€™s time to pick up tools and get to work fixing her up. Hence: the '''IDW'''.

|content=I have been relatively quiet for a reason. Amidst a large number of discussions misframing the '''IDW''' recently, I thought I was losing my mind. Even people close to me have become completely confused. Why??
This article gets it right to first approximation:

|content=Right now cancerous ideas are ubiquitous as institutional models are collapsing simultaneously from Journalism to Universities to Political parties. These bizarre ideas are flowing like water (Open and Zero immigration are both cancerous as an example).
So, we are fighting that.

|content=I am the first to admit that I cannot always keep my footing out here. If you can, your a better human than I am. Really. I know Iā€™m not up to the task as I am being pulled apart by all those I respect who need Left/Right institutional or media anchors which seem to be going mad.

|content=If thereā€™s one thing I do thatā€˜s most confusing itā€˜s this: I am consistently fighting bigoted SJW oppression theories not because I fear them the most. Quite the contrary. I fear that SJWs are trying to antagonize far right bigots to give their lazy oppression ideology relevance.

|content=The benefit of the previous progressivism was that we had the extreme right down to a few guys with Tiki torches. We got gay marriage, co-education, female choice over work, reproductive rights, etc... and then came the confused & bigoted issues like ā€œWhitenessā€. Which is insane.

|content=If you wanted to antagonize out-of-work patriots in swing states who have been screwed over by coastal boomers, intersectional oppression theory is maximally efficient. You could elect a Trump by demonizing white skin, patriotism, Christian values, military service & masculinity.

|content=Iā€™m not a republican. Iā€™m some flavor of progressive. But I do my best to love all my fellow Americans, including the SJWs and the patriots demonized by the SJWs. I love the US which has at times been horrible to my family *because* Iā€™ve traveled the world. And even with warts...
