Admittedly this might be one of the white lies I tell myself in order to stomach American political discourse. Good catch.

- nickff 10y agoWhy must you ignore opposing viewpoints "in order to stomach American political discourse"? I find this point quite dismaying. Speaking as someone who has strong views, I think we should all strive to grant our intellectual opponents the respect we expect from them, and we should endeavor to understand their views. Ideally you would put yourself in the position where you could argue their side of the debate in a manner indistinguishable from them (according to them), only then could you claim to understand them.
