  “Black sheep” I took to be in the sense of, you can throw a bunch of criticism at the person you’re oppressing and make it clear they’re an outlier from humanity and make it more palatable that you’re doing that and change the subject.

  “You shouldn’t be killing Gazan children on an industrial scale” “But they’re monsters, look at how terrible was Hamas’s attack on our music festival!” Things like that.

    If I was the wolf, I’d just point out that the shepherd eats lamb too, and is therefore just as much a murderer. The only difference is the amount of power in the equation. The wolf doesn’t need to be bigoted to make its point, there are much better criticisms against the way the shepherd deprives the sheep of liberty. I didn’t really understand why Lincoln was describing a foolish wolf who attacks the shepherd for bad reasons instead of readily available good ones. What the wolf says is pretty nonsense to me.

        "I looked at something Lincoln said, and it didn't right away make sense to me. Clearly, then, this Lincoln guy needs to get on my level."

  He probably was drawing the analogy with the landowners exploiting black people.

    Oh okay. So what does racists complaining that the government freed slaves have to do with soulism?

      TBH I didn’t understand your soulism comment or how it is connected with your original comment.

      I was really just supporting your original comment.

        Oh, okay. Soulism expands on the fact that everything is a bias.
