I’m a centrist in that I believe In trying to communicate with people who’s perspectives make you uncomfortable and I’m against media bubbles on both sides, but you would have to hold both my parents hostage if you ever wanted me to vote trump.

So there’s a lot of shit that tests my patience, whether it’s blind trust in capitalism, especially when super pacs are involved, being dismissive of climate change, social injustice and individual identity, or just being racist. But if you put one of these people in a left leaning bubble they go left, becoming more radical (for certain things at least) than me and if you keep them in a right media bubble they stay right.

Here’s some other things that make people uncomfortable, people are sometimes born into their religions and perspectives, does the second amendment puts pressure on a government to not be authoritarian? Is isolationism necessary, specifically in regard to the expected invasion of Taiwan?

Also AI is either the great filter or the only way for socialism to not converge power into the hands of the greedy few (I guess outside of a decentralized autonomous organization in a nation full of, observably, idiots. That also makes me uncomfortable
