> you have to be for something before you’re anti-anything. I also think that it helps to understand and acknowledge anything you can agree with, don't understand, or can be agnostic about, in ideas you disagree with. -- When I talk to friends or family with ideologies, I don't waste time trying to correct them. I admit I don't agree, but focus on what I like about their arguments, and shoot down a low hanging irrational argument or two, to help them make their case better. Every time we elevate the meta-goals of thinking clearly and being constructive about differences, we move a step closer to solving every other problem.
