An undue opinion of our own importance in the scale of creation is at the bottom of all our unwarrantable notions in this respect.

Left identitarians who think of themselves as radical creatures, contesting this and transgressing that, have become like buttoned-up Protestant schoolmarms when it comes to the English language, parsing every conversation for immodest locutions and rapping the knuckles of those who inadvertently use them.
