Undoubtedly. But unfortunately I know so many people who have thrown away years of friendship because they couldn't see past a difference of political opinion. For example, my aunt's closest friend of forty years stopped talking to her when she found out she voted for Trump. As if my aunt just suddenly changed who she was into a racist bigot? Couldn't possibly be because she had an entirely different perspective on who Trump is based on a different news outlet? Of course both of their so-called news is crap, but despite my aunt's hatred for Hillary, she knew her friend wasn't a villain and that she was obviously seeing a different picture being painted. Kudos to her for being rational lol

Some people have bought so hard into the corporate owned media that they've lost all perspective. I've heard one story after another like the one above, siblings who aren't talking to each other, even parents and children, let alone friendships crumbling. Always because either one or both of them seem to believe that their media is infallible, entirely accurate and basically their bible. Left and right wing news are the new religions with different gods like trump and Biden, fauci and Malone, with different doctrines... complete with child sacrifice. It's very disturbing.

But it's also kinda interesting lol. We are definitely living through a fascinating time of major shifting, and it hasn't even hit its peak. I sometimes get wrapped up in the moment, but I also take a large step back and look at it from a place outside the turmoil. That's what makes it easy for me not to get so wrapped up in what I currently believe, not to think that because I can't stand the mask it means anyone who embraces it is my enemy...I mean really, how silly is that fight from an eternal perspective? Ha!
