This is weird for me - you disagree with each other, but I very much agree with you both!

Yes, I find some republicans really annoying with their "I never thought it would be MY loved one that got mistreated" and "I just can't understand why my republican friends haven't realised that gun controls are a good idea like I did when my kids nearly got shot at school last month".

But on the other hand, there's hope that people can change their minds and suddenly see humanity where they were previously demonizing, turn around and start advocating for a bit more love and kindness in the world.
