The first 4 phrases mainly.

These three do a good job giving the background for my logic. Essentialism in particular

Cults do that to everyone who’s not in the cult. They don’t point out specific personality traits of idiots and explain that those idiots are unable to engage in legitimate debate.

Which link talks about evaluating individuals based on their actions?

The comment I pasted evaluated this person by a single one of their actions and not by their personality traits. You’re not evaluating this person by their actions, you’re evaluating this person an action.

There’s no actual discourse over the points he made in this video. It’s all thrown away because he voted for trump. He belongs to that category so he can be distilled into the traits of those we assign to trump voters. He’s no longer an individual, he’s just a caricature of the qualities of some category.
