    you know if you listen to flat earthers they say they are the ones with proof and the round earth is fake and dumb

    perhaps it is your job to determine truth accurately using evidence and not just go “a disagreement, how fascinating”

      For sure. Both sides have some self discovery to do unless one truly believes 100% of policies and actions taken by their chosen political party are unquestionably correct. There’s a lot of common ground to be found between people if they were to relax and not go full bore tribalism with politics. Unfortunately people really like tribalism and owning or dunking on whoever their opposition is. That is people usually prefer being right to such a degree they are willing to disregard the wellbeing of everyone for it. Obviously you see this behavior in your opposition, but maybe it’s a little harder to see in the tribes you identify with.
