What passes for "debate" these days
Reminder: More than one thing can be true at the same time
A few of many, many examples…
Present a well-researched analysis of U.S. war crimes. Folks get apoplectic and rant about the war crimes of authorized enemies.
Present a well-researched analysis of Republicans’ crimes. Folks get apoplectic and rant about the crimes of Democrats.
Present a well-researched analysis of Democrats’ crimes. Folks get apoplectic and rant about the crimes of Republicans.
Present a well-researched analysis of the Ukraine situation. Folks get apoplectic and rant about Putin.
Present a well-researched analysis of Hamas’s war crimes. Folks get apoplectic and rant about the war crimes of Israel.
Present a well-researched analysis of Israel’s war crimes. Folks get apoplectic and rant about the war crimes of Hamas.
Present a well-researched analysis of capitalism. Folks get apoplectic and rant about “socialism.”
Present a well-researched analysis of, well… anything. Folks get apoplectic and get angry that you’re not talking enough about their personal cause.
I could go on and on — but it would be a lot cooler if more “free thinkers” were doing some free thinking.
Reminder: More than one thing can be true at the same time — and usually is.
REMAIN REACHABLE & TEACHABLE.

well said Mickey, too many folks like their mental chains instead of observing basic facts......
in recent days I decided that we have a splendid choice who to vote for. 2 dementing old men and one dissident, who does not seem as clean as he pretends. From the reps in the debate, we know Haley is a WEF member. Ramaswamy is one from the same swamp as the other stinking rich buggers. May be we need a Lech Walesa? Mickey for president !
