I'm working on it. Maybe. Well, one day. Like when other Left of centre, anti trump, anti corpo type folks oppose the things I oppose in correct manner and degree, duh.

Humans are born uninformed and the monkey part of our brains tells us that we are right and there is no deeper layer to "obvious" things. I'm just as mad when peoples default state is confidently incorrect but I try not to say anything mean, because hey maybe that was me at some point.
It's still you today, and will you be in the future.
It just find it hilarious how people take these absolutist stances on issues, as if they are God-like, when they have limited information on them. And if you present them with information that shows their view is limited, they just hate you for it.
The issue is people's egotistical need to feel superior/correct. And they will not give that up. What's interesting about actual experts, is they don't take that approach. They openly discuss the limits of their knowledge and capability... laymen do the exact opposite and emotionally insist that their lack of knowledge makes their understanding more honest... or something.
Hence people will read one comment you make, and make that totally determinate of your entire personality and belief system. Because, they KNOW WHO YOU REALLY ARE. Based on a sentence you randomly typed once on a website...
