And fox news as the boogie man will continue to live in your heads.

"Fight the good fight" ffs.




I think I pretty clearly laid out how this "boogy man" has directly impacted my life. That's a reality that very much exists outside my head.


What's the alternative? To do nothing? You my friend are a cynic, but your existence proves that you're probably less of a cynic than you let on


Don't alienate the "other side", it drives them further away.

Shake hands, understand why others feel the way they do. You don't have to agree, but it helps.

I need to do this myself, but I don't walk around angry and blame "the other side"


I think when dealing with 'the other side' so to speak, a good many of us (me included) are against the forces of shear ignorance, scientific illiteracy, undo/thinly veiled racism, and a general disunion amongst men (a war of all against all). I certainly wouldn't put you in this category, but you must admit your original comment came in hot, which instinctively makes people put their shields up. I hope we can all be like the Buddha, but for me, it's exceedingly hard to embody
