For me, it’s which ever side I’m talking to in the moment, haha
One fascinating thing I learned a few years ago… It’s personality, not beliefs, that tend to determine whether or not a person finds themself on the right or left. People on the left are typically more open and creative, and people on the more right are typically more structured and industrious. It’s usually personality that shapes worldview, not the other way around. There are obviously plenty of exceptions (although my personal theory is that if your political beliefs lean opposite your personality, you’re likely somewhere in the middle).
Therefore, we really need both sides. The strength of one makes up for the weakness of the other.
That is a completely foreign idea to both sides, and that’s main thing that makes me smh.
There’s a complete lack of curiosity about opposing perspectives, let alone consideration that there could possibly be truth to be found over there.
