David Brooks is paid to be a character.

He represents whiteness. He is endlessly wrong. He is a bad faith actor who never atones/repents. It's just one long advertisement for products that don't work. His lack of accuracy is a perfect description of conservatism, writ large.

Often dead wrong, never in doubt.

Ross Douthat is equally as worthless.

I’m not an exceptional person, but I am a grower. I do have the ability to look at my shortcomings, and then try to prod myself into becoming a more fully developed person.

Man of the People

The commentator David Brooks -- who has made a career out of piously trolling liberals for their supposed decadence and lack of morals -- posted a photo on Twitter with the caption “This meal just cost me $78 at Newark Airport. This is why Americans think the economy is terrible.” Pictured in the photo were a hamburger and French fries with what appeared to be a fairly large glass of whiskey. Social media users quickly identified the restaurant in question, and the owner chimed in to confirm that the food portion of Brooks' meal cost around $18, with rest of the tab being liquor.

but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of inhumanity

Human beings need recognition as much as they need food and water.  No crueler punishment can be devised that to not see someone, to render them unimportant or invisible.  "The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them," George Bernard Shaw wrote, "but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of inhumanity."  To do that is to say: You don't matter. You don't exist.
