I'm working on it. Maybe. Well, one day. Like when other Left of centre, anti trump, anti corpo type folks oppose the things I oppose in correct manner and degree, duh.

Most of my friends don’t share the exact beliefs I do in regards to pretty much anything, doesn’t mean we can’t get together and yell at each other about it over a few beers around the campfire.

    Oh absolutely. Heck, a good number of my friends are conservative.

    I think maybe a lot of the nuance and consideration doesn't translate well to strangers online, so instead of seeking to understand we flip to fighting and without the context of a good friendship, we don't really know how to navigate those arguments online.

    (Also, we don't have that filter of "oh, just don't get into X with Janet, you know she'll start yelling" for folks. Sp double whammy.)
