Yup. Though I wouldn't focus in on this being a centrist liberal thing only. The progressives and everyone else on the left are all guilty of that arrogance and unwavering belief in their own superiority. It would be a good step to adopt the saying that the congressman mentioned in an earlier video I shared, "I'm a liberal, but I'm not condescending about it." Unfortunately, I don't see that happening.
