I really want socialists to stop internalizing the projected insecurity that comes at us in the form of Liberal and Conservative insults. If I have to choose between being a red neck, a dilettante, or a mensch, I am going with mensch every time.

Why is having a deep and abiding interest and even expertise in something seen as a positive thing (except when it’s a ‘special interest’ and the ‘tism)?
And why is having varied interests but perhaps somewhat more shallow in the approach seen as being a dabbler, a dilettante?
Pls explain.
