The Frog
I love your moral certitude. Why bother coming to a thread on this matter then, other than to tell others that they're wrong and you're right? You don't see any complexity in the situation at all?
There are cases which have evidence in favor of one side, so overwhelmingly you can say with the utmost confidance which side is right. It is possible the other side of the argument is complete BS and we can call them out on it - without "convincing ourselves" (your words) we are right and without doing any of this: "but we still always manage to cherry-pick the facts to suit our perspective, and always manage to show how we are in the right, and the other side's views and claims are banal, foolish, or evil. " Sometimes one side is morally right.
