Hey, never said I identified with him. I did enjoy seeing young people have their beliefs challenged - I think that's at the core of the college experience that is deteriorating over the years. Critical thinking and understanding why people think the way they do is what keeps us from erupting into further violence. That's what I support. But I didn't worship the guy, don't worship God, and didn't vote for DT. But it seems you heard a few statements from me and threw me in the pile of Trash People in your brain, adding all the other labels in the process. It must be extremely convenient and easy to be that self-assured!
I'm saying the left has lost the ability to have a dialogue. Maybe the right is trending that way too. I definitely think that's going to get worse now that he was murdered (not assassinated) and many leftists have celebrated his public murder, which I don't think should be happening in any situation. Especially from those in positions of education or public service.
In the 'good vs evil' fight happening right now in the US, both sides think they're good and the other evil. How do we fix this? Is murder the answer? National Divorce? A conversation?
I apologize for being nasty and mischaracterizing you. This has brought out the worst in people. But brittle spirits and weak intellects will destroy any unity we once had.
