It sounds like this a former teacher writing this…

Even as a principle egalitarianism is fundamentally flawed, failing to recognise that people are different and bring different strengths and weaknesses to the party. Complementarianism is a better ideal; yin is not yang but they complement each other—*need* each other—to make the circle complete.

As FSC wrote, it’s the ‘instant dismissal’ that is much of the problem—there is no opportunity to clarify remarks, nor forgiveness even after apologising (Douglas Murray has more than once noted the problem of society—SJWs/Woke Left anyway—losing the capacity to forgive; e.g. https://youtu.be/_pHIXWGSwVE?t=3981).

An interesting point JG, do you have any examples of this?

An interesting point Michael, do you think that this was well intentioned? And what are the positive and negative effects of this?
