    Fair enough. I guess I was too polarized from my time on reddit to consider anyone voting something else. Thanks for giving me perspective

      No worries, I used to support the Democrats! But that was before I started actually paying attention to politics and following the news. As soon as I did, it became clear to me that they were just wolves in sheep’s clothing, and are almost as bad as the Repblicans.

      Not knowing things is fine, as it gives you a chance to learn and grow. It’s chosing what to do with the new information that matters.

      Online dialogue tends to disuade from that, and often pushes towards polarization. I apologize if I was overly polarized, as I often get attacked from people who refute information, instead of internalizing it.
