Maybe it's your tone?
- 101404 7y agoSadly, that is very likely a main reason. Political discussion isn't so much about the exchange of views anymore, but about "winning" and "destroying" the other side. And there is a reason for that. There is an interesting interview with a US 4-Star General about the topic of "controlling the public" in cyberspace: https://youtu.be/qOTYgcdNrXE https://youtu.be/qOTYgcdNrXE
- tomohawk 7y agoEDIT: just stating the obvious. if your post is dripping with condescension, then I can only imagine what your conversations are like. Take a deep breath, present your case, and keep what's important (your relationship with who you're talking with) at the forefront. Here's a nice talking point: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/daily-deaths-covid-19?country=USA+OWID_WRL https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/daily-deaths-covid-19?cou... In the US, the number of deaths has doubled since last week. That site has many other interesting charts.
