Maybe a better way to say this is "you don't have to engage people who don't share your political bent."
- fariss 3y agoThanks for the nice reply. Sometimes it is not that easy to just ignore what is going and pretend the world is at peace. I find myself taking a stance unconsciously..
- retrocryptid 3y agoI hear you. "Don't engage" is more like an aspirational statement. Though in the last year I've been doing better at it. It may be because I spend more time reading these days than I did a year or two ago.
