Indignation is different from outrage – a sentiment that is ultimately blind and not necessarily connected to any presumption that one shares commitments with the people against whom it is directed. This is to some degree also the story of 1968: righteous disgust led to outrage, but, when channeled through completely unrealistic revolutionary theorizing, also to self-righteousness and, ultimately, to elaborate justifications for physical violence on the part of radical factions.
义愤不同于震怒——后者具有终极的盲目性，而且不一定建立在自己与对方遵守共同承诺的基础之上。某种程度上1968年运动也是如此：正当的厌恶演变为愤怒，但如果通过完全不切实际的革命理论来发泄这种愤怒，它也可能演变为自以为是，并最终导致激进派别精心炮制将暴力的合法化理由。
