   undesirable places. I mean    
   the positive middle path, that combines what each side is right about while

   is right to protect    
   itself from predatory and corrupt business practices. Women have right to   
   pursue a safe life inside the home and a fulfilling life outside the home; men   
   have right to protect themselves from cruelty and nastiness by feminists. It   
   is right to pursue    
   scientific and technological progress; it is also right to protect nature from   
   blind and irreversible destruction.

   either go right or wrong,    
   it is not right to take either side. It is right to see who is right and about   
   what, and to relate to the situation from that premise.

   the standpoint of moral judgment. All exist from the standpoint of reality.   
   When dealing with things    
   that exist from the standpoint of reality, independent of moral judgment, the   
   solution is to see who is right and about what. And it is to empower the first   
   while confronting the second.

   > When that is not done, we see hideous outcomes. What we see is empowering   
   one side in all sorts of corrupt and tyrannical practices while oppressing the   
   other side even in its ability to produce good results. We see this both with   
   people who are only    
   pro-business and with people who are only pro-labor. We see this both with   
   people who are only pro-woman and with people who are only pro-man. We see   
   this both with people who are only pro-nature and with people who are only   
   pro-civilization. In all    
   cases a great wrong is done.
