I think that says a lot about where we are right now as a country, that even some people were willing to go and make this argument, and the argument that emerged from some on the left and some never Trump people was that you can justify these personal attacks based on a political belief that you think goes beyond the pale.

It's a story of a new feminism that's pushing the party ever-further from the center on abortion, of a new cohort of white liberals who are actually to the left of many African-Americans on racial issues, of an activist base that brands positions that many liberals held only yesterday as not only mistaken but bigoted or racist or beyond-the-pale.

The emphasis on shared responsibility and the fear of the Other might feel like a call-and-response to the Western world, but The Square isn't just a Trump screed or an anti-Brexit lamentation: In 2008, Sweden approved the opening of its first gated community, proving that even the most infamously egalitarian society was not beyond the pale of fear.
