I love a friendly debate. (So few people know how to debate today) I can be friends with almost anyone with a different opinion if they are polite, principled, and think for themselves. It is a bit harder when they blindly repeat what authority tells them and verbally abuse me when my arguments hit home.

It's crazy that this even needs to be said.

My take has always been that someone with a different opinion is an opportunity to have a mind changed (their's or mine).

Somehow, culture has shifted to empty cheer leading, us vs them, wanting to ruin people's lives, and even imprison them.

Government schools are a big part of it. To debate, you need to be able to use logic and think for yourself. The government doesn't like that, so it is discouraged in school and most people never grow out of their indoctrination.
