Home What annoys me is when people claim that I must denounce so and so or say such and such because it’s the “principled” thing to do. They haven’t even considered the possibility that perhaps I have different principles than they do. Those might be YOUR principles but they aren’t mine. One of my most cherished principles is loyalty to family and friends. It might not be yours but it is mine. So when you accuse me of not having principles, please make sure to stipulate that I don’t have YOUR principles. And that is true. But I’m not you and you aren’t me. You might want to consider that on occasion.
