The tyranny of a hyper present tense

Mark Steyn is thinking today about empathy. The Left now is unable to empathize, as identity politics has consumed them. There is also a sustained war on the past going on.

In demanding the past conform to the pieties of the present, we are saying there is no eternal human nature.

When you surrender your past you are also surrendering your future, because you are breaking the compact between the past, present and future.
