I use to think religion was the taboo choice of topic

@Torsten you know as well as i do, everyone thinks they're "fact checkers"

@Torsten i dont even like getting involved anymore because there is so much misinformation and misinterpretation you don't know what or who to believe anymore. Its the democrats fault. No its the republicans. No this all started with obama. Blah blah blah. Cant trust the stats, cant trust the politicians, cant trust anything sheesh

@JestAJester that is my point. Everyone says they are stating facts and it seems facts are just peoples opinions and feelings now

@Torsten then you gotta check their sources. Then you gotta check to see if those sources are credible and not backed by an agenda. Theres a word for this let me see if i can figure out what it is

@JestAJester I think you are doing better then most if you're actually checking peoples sources haha

@Torsten im not lol. I dont care to argue usually. Basically just information overload

@Torstenalien dude has gone nuts over a lot of these posts

@JestAJester he seems to live for those discussions. Have never seen him talk of anything else

@Torsten rather angry for his age dont ya think?

@JestAJester anyone who is obsessed with politics come off as sad angry people with nothing better to think of imo

@Torsten Both sides are losing their minds, they both can't be using facts.

@Roadsterrider Well both sides trust their sources with unquestioning loyalty

@JestAJester That is certainly true for some on the left and right, I think there is a larger portion in the middle who just go along unless it affects them, and they are becoming affected. Younger people who are just realizing they need to participate, people who just don't care for the drama and campaign rhetoric.
