In all honestly, I'd like both sides to lose their crazy extremist ends, and it gives me 0 pleasure to see people of any stripe behave badly. I get no pleasure, for instance, watching the current president lie, fail, and tween insane bullshit, even if it does give "my side" a better chance in the future because I, you know, care about other human beings, and don't enjoy seeing anyone fuck up other people's lives, or even just their own.
To each their own I guess.
Well said.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
