By the way I read your first post way out of context- my comments apply to someone who is just taking the middle road to get along with everyone.
Example) I have a friend who talks politics with the boys, aligned with us, but then around his girl gives into her political views and acts differently. He’s someone taking the middle to get along with everyone. That’s who I’m speaking of.
And yeah you’re pretty spot on, you should definitely stay skeptical of anyone in power. I look for action and when I see action, I either like it or hate it.
What I see is so far so good, I will not suppress that, and yes this can shift on an action to action basis. But I won’t remain neutral just to remain neutral in the eyes of others. That’s kind of what I was getting at, just to clarify
