My wife is Chinese (I'm white), which is more excusable in those racist frames. Personally, I feel no need to educate people with racist views, or to decide whether or not their condition was one of circumstance, or whether or not that question even makes sense because every condition is one of circumstance. However, what perplexes me, is that Murphy is carefully revealing common sense as enlightenment. The lamentable situation is that the left has their heads so far up their own asses that the even the contemplation of examining opposing ideology is considered to be bravery. Not only is shunning people that are 'wrong' self-defeating and hypocritical, we just aren't that fragile to begin with. When circumstances and motivation allow for reflection and engagement, then yeah, we should reflect upon and engage other points of view. It's not novel, and the benefits of doing so are pretty well understood.
