In reply to the discussion: What's a subject where you have a point of view but can see the other side of it too? [View all]Rex
(65,616 posts)Okay good question, I JUST wrote a reply to someone. I am trying to understand this conversation, because I can see both side of the argument.
I guess the one main point of view I can always see from most people that post here is that they to are progressives. They just view getting there in a different way than I do. Sometimes I have a hard time remembering that everyone here wants the same thing I do, I just lose site of the overall goal.
I can see why people would vote for a dead duck (D) dragged up onto a stage any day for the rest of their lives - instead of voting for a republican. I can see that. I understand it well.
I also know that not all Centrists are trying to hoard every shackle left on the planet. They don't care about that as much as working with their opponents. They like to negotiate and I like to protest. I understand that well too.
Not everyone reads the same things I do or watches the same stuff that I do on the Intertubes. I get it. It is a big place. Also, some days I am in a bad mood from stress at work and my opinion means a lot more to me than days I have it easy and am relaxed. Everyone is that way, I get it.
Like I said, really I can see a POV and really all I want to do is have a discussion. No fights, no snark, no go look it up moron, etc..
FWIW, I really like the OP, great topic to discuss.
