He was so grateful after Iraq and Afghanistan.

Two points in all of this sad mess need to be underlined.

1. Just because you're fighting 'bad people', that does not make you by default 'good people'.

2. Having labelled yourselves as good people, that does not mean that whatever you do is good, just because you're doing it.

Sadly, it seems there are many in the USA, ReFuck and the Tories who seem incapable of grasping these ideas.

I find myself pondering this sort of thing a lot. I despise Reform but does that mean everyone who votes Reform is a bad person who I should despise as well? Has everything been boiled down to this zero sum? I try to resist this thinking but it's difficult.

I’d say yes, a significant proportion of Reform voters really are bad, self-centred, and venal people. But a large proportion of them are simply very, very stupid. Of course, the Venn diagrammatic intersection between the bad and venal and the very stupid is incredibly well populated.

The stupid ones - and they are plenty - are also bad.
Because our democratic system allows them to damage not just themselves, but the rest of us.
