Abstract
Cultural and politically-salient narratives often proceed on mainstream assumptions while also promising to represent universal truths about our collective societal experiences. The frequent danger in fixing our mindsets too firmly onto such narratives is our consequential inabilities to detect situational realities that might engender grander societal benefits. In the culture wars that continue to persist in the U.S., I often see the response to such narratives as team sports-like: oppositional groups representing conservative and progressive views are invariably locked in battles that seem to repeat season after season. Those on either side deepen the narratives and beliefs about each other as part of the subjective process of “othering.”
