This is common in politics, so I don't blame you, but I don't think you're serving yourself or anyone else well.
- marcan_42 6y agoI fail to see how meeting someone in person is a requirement to form an opinion on them based on their public actions. Claiming that it is, though, sure sounds like a common dismissive tactic in politics, and especially when defending people who otherwise commit undesirable, even detestable public actions ("but he's a great guy, he'd never hurt anyone" etc).
- forgotmypw17 6y agoWhat I'm saying is that politics distorts everything about a person, and makes them appear as something they are not.
