I’m a conservative and I’m prejudiced, I admit it. This isn’t something I’m going to take to the confessional though, since judging certain things to be worse than others or downright bad in themselves isn’t just natural to humans — it’s necessary for human flourishing.
I prejudge the killing of innocent babies in their mothers’ wombs to be bad. It would be an evil whether the mother wants the child or not. Similarly, I judge the chemical or surgical mutilation of children (or anyone at any age, really) to be wicked. It, too, would be an evil whether the person is in mental and emotional confusion about his biological sex or not. [Remember when we used to be repulsed by the castration of men?]
But, mostly, and vehemently, I’m prejudiced against liberal pieties, progressive ideology, political correctness, “wokeism,” or whatever the latest corruption of language is used to describe the Left. And the Left is just as prejudiced against my beliefs (or more), although adherents cast it as my being a “____ist” or “____phobe” rather than admit their bigotry, since not being a bigot is one of those liberal pieties they’re so proud of. Pride being the deadliest of deadly sins.
