Why does this atmosphere feel familiar, something so\u2026 Nh\u1eb9 nh\u00e0ng?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018This is the first time I\u2019ve spoken Vietnamese in my public life. I only use it with my family,\u2019 he says. Of course: Andy and I resemble youths in pre-1975 Saigon: our reserved manner, the way we refer to each other as <em>anh\/em<\/em>, down to our fluffy hair styles that better resemble my parents\u2019 old photos than today\u2019s airbrushed K-pop posters.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I search Andy\u2019s name in Google on the train ride home, skimming the words: \u2018antifa\u2019, \u2018Portland\u2019, \u2018fascist grifter\u2019, \u2018provocateur\u2019\u2014 how can someone with such a gentle aura embody the mainstream media\u2019s depiction of a malevolent troll? I scroll past the criticisms, trying to confirm my initial impression. Did my immediate sense of trust signal astronomical naivety or moral depravity? I cannot decide which is worse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;*&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During a weekend trip to Salisbury, a series of signs promising cakes, coffee and tea lead me into a local cathedral. The concrete space beside the pews is lined with blue gingham tablecloths spread over foldable tables. After ordering a warm cheese scone and tea, I sit beside an elderly local named Jane and introduce myself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018Are you religious?\u2019 Jane\u2019s fingers tremble as she removes the tea bag from her cup. The gemstone on her wedding ring catches the light. Her husband\u2019s death was five years ago.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018Only my mother is Catholic,\u2019 I speak louder when she leans forward with a hearing aid-fitted ear. The echo through the stain glass images and wooden beams makes me self-conscious, \u2018although I find some of the parables very illuminating.\u2019&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I cite the story of Mary Magdalene, an adulteress who was doomed to death by stoning. Jesus spared Magdalene\u2019s life by telling the crowd, \u2018Anyone who has no sin in their life should step forward and throw the first stone.\u2019 Magdalene became one of Jesus\u2019 loyalist allies, accompanying him through his crucifixion and resurrection.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018I have a soft spot for stories like that: two disgraced characters recognise each other\u2019s goodness,\u2019 My fork cracks through the scone\u2019s crispy shell. The prongs clank upon contact with the plate beneath, \u2018and their friendship transcends society\u2019s fickle moral standards.\u2019&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" class=\"wp-image-18497\" style=\"width: 750px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20230212_110129-Salisbury-cathedral-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20230212_110129-Salisbury-cathedral-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20230212_110129-Salisbury-cathedral-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20230212_110129-Salisbury-cathedral-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20230212_110129-Salisbury-cathedral-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20230212_110129-Salisbury-cathedral-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20230212_110129-Salisbury-cathedral-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>At Salisbury Cathedral<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An extremist segment of the political Left prides itself on #compassion and parades mottos like #bekind and anti-racism.
