#factsnotfeelings :) I love this post! Upvoted and followed. Honestly I love talking to people about these things, needless to say, I've ruined a lot of parties...Obviously there is a time and a place for these sorts of discussions, however it also has a lot to do with the type of people you choose to surround yourself with, you want to hang out with people you can have REAL discussions with, without devolving into a mud-slinging match, unfortunately that often drives people to just surround themselves with only people who agree with them which doesn't leave a lot of opportunity for correction (which may well be required) resulting in the proverbial echo chamber we all claim to want to avoid. I don't know I have any answers to this issue but look forward conversing with you about it.
