Ah, yes, let’s turn the Fundamental Attribution Error into a political weapon.  That will certainly go well.  No way it’ll be used for more purity policing.

I recommend being careful on whose allegiances you force.

Ah, here we go.  

@collapsedsquid Imagine Rush Limbaugh, speaking into his microphone:

Fundamental attribution Error has this virtue: it makes it easy to identify which tribe a pundit or commentator really feels they belong to.

Profess your independence all you want.  If it’s always Americans *deciding* to do things & foreigners (especially Muslims) involuntarily and passively responding to them, you’ve declared your allegiance.

(Ignore for a moment that Limbaugh would never use the words “fundamental attribution error”, heh.)
