Description

Iran was up in arms about the United States assassinating one of its top generals, but now is calling for regime change in their own country. People are upset that two members of the Royal Family want to live their own lives. Libertarians are upset about Vermin Supreme winning the New Hampshire Libertarian Party nomination. What's the common thread here? In each case,  individual virtue or fault is found by collective membership. Even among the most individual of thinkers, it is hard to move away from the 'we' and 'us' mentality. Join Evelyn and Shawn as they discuss the reasons they feel are behind this phenomenon.
