Great points! And all very reasonable and true. Unfortunately, we’ve entered a period of pointless and incessant partisan outrage, and as you provide reasonable arguments that speak to both sides of the political, I will be surprised if you get ANY positive responses to this post.

I don’t think the algorithms encourage that.

I don’t think you will get a single positive response. Let me know if you do. I’m studying rhetoric and how it has taken a deep turn for the worst, politically speaking.
