Years from now, the people supporting [trend] will recognize that their language is [derogatory term] and they will regard themselves with specifically the same contemptuous feelings that I currently hold for them.
It is important for my sense of shrewd detachment that I believe all of this.
If they never come to regard themselves with the same contempt that I'm currently using, then that means that my current contempt has lost its prospective mooring and can only be explained with reference to my current affect or my past experiences. And that would imply that I'm a person who gets changed and altered by my experiences! I do not want this! I want to be a person whose judgments are inviolable and outside of history. Satisfied security in my judgment is important for my self-concept!
Some people think one thing and then later think another? They learn from experience, including the experience of unexpected feelings? Couldn't be me, assholes.
