This is a red-herring. I wasn't speaking specifically of this specific incident but rather endorsing the position that *all* misunderstandings of this type are based in the Sqew between disparate basis spaces of values, and that any *honest* interest in understanding "the other" would be focused on understanding these misalignments rather than looking for the most egregious misalignment between two vectors with similar names, but different implications by far.

I think values parallax (to the extent I understand your intended meaning) is highly relevant to action. I'm not sure if you are suggesting in this example that there is something about Antifa Values (local or global) that makes them more likely to "bring their guns to town" and then to "fire them haphazardly" while somehow the Proud Boys would (not just did) not (in this case)? If it were Haight-Ashbury flower children clashing with Sonny Barger's boys, it would be very clear that values parallax had a strong influence on who got a daisy in the nose and who got lashed with a motorcycle chain. We are probably just talking past one another (again). Probably an unrecognized misalignment in our basis vectors? - Steve .-- .- -. - / .- -.-. - .. --- -. ..--.. / -.-. --- -. .--- ..- --. .- - .
