Hoplite does not bother himself with such inconvenient anomalies ,that would require him to be accountable for his own inability to be consistent in his argumentation.

Better to lose one's self in the simplistic fog of passive denial then to confront the complexities and inconveniences of the truth, that makes it easier for him to live with himself.

On Reductionism

Monty: We're both very clever. That is, we can see such patterns in verbal behavior such as:

Hoplite: "...Just like the Germans, no Bosnian Serb ever saw any of the crimes perpetrated in their midst. And like the Germans, their visions of ethnic supremacy have been turned to ashes."

What else needs to be said in the context of Reductionism or perhaps, Hoplite's underlying motivation?
