Yeah, but behind that wrong side is a valid person, and without a discussion you’ll never know how they ended up on that wrong side. Without knowing how they got there, you’ll never be able to sway them away from the wrong side and they will continue to be wrong.

I think everyone has something worth saying, but in the majority of cases I just don’t have the time, energy, or patience to get to that something.

This is a great point for the vast majority of opinions. I have an aunt who's a flaming, angry conservative. She and her husband lost their jobs because of Obama tax increases and he now works as a flunky for his brother.

I understand where she's coming from because I listened. Didn't stop me from blocking her eventually, though. One must limit the amount of toxicity one sees on a daily basis.
