"I have lost a few friends for daring to indicate that I don't feel constantly guilty for the actions of people"

A) They weren't friends, obviously

B) They are crazy on the margins.

This kind of stuff is why I stopped identifying with progressive causes. Sure - I might support a lot of it, but it's off the deep end. And the 'group think' and oppressive and stifling situations were just too much.

To think that you could possibly 'lose friends' over such an issue is the insanity that is 2016.
