This is coming from a recovering Trump supporter.

You are bound to clash with the world around you if you try to simplify EVERYTHING into "Show me/us some respect!!!" That is not the beginning and end of every issue.

Sorry this will be considered inflammatory and I know people will deflect but it's just true.

Congratulations on your awakening. Also there are not many like you, at least I have not come across many. I can count with one hand how many people I know have the wherewithal of examining their views and when necessary, reevaluate their opinions. Regardless of which side they support.
You have my respect.

@Infamous607 That means a lot because honestly I just hold a lot of regret.

@SinlessOnslaught
The way I see it is like this...
I'm probably still going to be wrong about some things. Otherwise it would mean that I already know everything. Which obviously I don't.
But at least I'm not going to be wrong about that anymore.
To me, changing my mind is like finding money!! It's like wow, I never saw it that way.
When I hear someone say, I ve always felt like this and I will always feel the same way about whatever.. right there I'm like .. ok..

@SinlessOnslaught Believe me my friend, you might not think it's a big deal, but it takes a lot to evaluate our own convictions and then have the balls to stand by the new ones. Regardless of what side you support. Good for you!
