I Hate Politics
I follow it, but I hate it. I don't really care who's right and who's wrong, as much as I care for how we treat one another for our differing views. It's ok to disagree, but it's not ok to be divided.

Right and wrong matter. In terms of your rights.. if you want to continue to be able to do and think for yourself you should recognize your role.
We are divided because no one "cares" about anyone else. Nor do they care about right and wrong.
You see...when wrong things happen all the time there is no hope for coming together.
When lives are continually marginalized...when lives are placed on a lower level than economy and business. There can not be togetherness.
So many fail to grasp this.

@JaggedLittlePill I believe right and wrong matter, but not as much as how we feel. I know that is contrary to general belief, but we are emotional creatures. If we believe we are being challenged, we will defend our ideals, even if we may feel we may infact be wrong. And so, if being right isn't enough to persuade this country, but being empathetic can have the ability to persuade one another more effectively, then shouldn't we care more about how we feel over who is right?
I'll extend an olive branch. In an ideal world, we should prioritize who is right over feelings, but this isn't the ideal world, unfortunately :/ I think caring more about how we feel is what would lower our guard enough to listen to what we each have to say and ultimately lead us to our ideal greater priority of who is right and who is wrong.
