A lot of liberals can see issues in society, problems. People being oppressed, people unable to afford to live, increasing isolation etc.
But they resist “feel-good” solutions to these problems, that people less educated than them might come up with. Housing too expensive? The answer is clearly not to provide free or subsidized housing. That sounds good, but it would cause untold economic pain, making things worse. Instead we need a 5 year committee exploration into tax breaks for first time home buyers with a small business. This is just rational behavior. Intelligent behavior.
This type of logic can be applied in every situation, where they add “depth” and “complexity” to every situation, so that they can rationalize their slavish adherence to the status quo, and so that they can feel superior to the unenlightened populists.
Honestly I feel this is a problem in all aspects of life. People (and they are most often liberals ime) resist simple solutions in favour of their own, complicated approach that isn't even necessarily a solution because it makes them feel like they're in control.
Maybe I'm an old fuddy duddy, and I certainly don't exist pre-atomisation, but I'd argue atomisation of society has seen people less able to just discuss and not insist on their own way.
