The truth hurts, but if you accept it, it will set you free
Title couldn’t say it all.

How arrogant are you to think that you deserve to go through life with no one ever saying anything that you do not agree or don't like?

If you aren't humble, whatever empathy you claim is false and probably results from some arrogance or the desire to control…

Honestly, I love to have conversations with people I do not agree with... trust me, as a left-leaning stripper, deep in the red heart of Texas... I do it often!

I honestly try to learn from every conversation... whether it is understanding their point of view or deepening my own ideas through having to defend them to others.

People are amazing... and I love to put the puzzle pieces together to see what picture it forms... good and bad... beautiful and ugly...

I will play along and comment on your comment.

When a person say "honestly" as a preface to something, it makes me doubt what they are saying is the real truth…

In any case you made me think of Socrates

He simply asked questions, spoke to anyone: nobles, common citizens, young people, old people etc etc.

Socrates’s questions, in their frankness, in their simplicity striped of any pretense of merit or credence the certainties of his interlocutors, forcing them to confront the emptiness of their own certainties, with the incoherence of their reasoning...

Tell that to the left.

Is this the William F. Buckley who has endorsed Harris over Trump for this election?

The Trump Derangement Syndrome is strong in this one.
