I've also come to recognize it as a glaring persuasion tell, particularly for the style that plays to identity. http://paulgraham.com/identity.html is a good essay that speaks to some but not all of the phenomenon.

Speaking of tells, I've observed that projecting fear onto others is a 100% reliable indicator that the speaker is a leftist.

But seriously...yes, yes, let's all get cozy, sip some Earl Grey and chat about GOP policies in a primary that has quite clearly been dominated by deep dives into position papers and the like. Are you for real? This whole primary has been nothing but white noise!

http://www.redstate.com/jaycaruso/2016/02/29/dont-vote-donald-trump/ Witness the final gasps of a useless opposition quote:Life is certainly a mystery. It’s almost impossible at times to understand phenomenons that occur whether in culture, politics or life in general. Surely there is no greater mystery that I can think of than the rise of Donald Trump in the Republican Party since last June. He has a good shot of winning the GOP nomination based on what we have seen thus far. If he does get the nomination, he will run against Hillary Clinton. And he will lose — badly — and he will almost assuredly, destroy the Republican Party as we know it...
