I like your description of yourself as being nuanced in perspective. I would lump myself into that same category. In today’s toxic political environment, I find it disheartening that every progressive is cast as an unrealistic wanna be victim fighting against the racist, entitled and patriarchal status quo and every conservative is a bigoted entitled person wanting to protect their historical unfair advantage. As with most things in life there are good and bad points to be considered on both sides. At least when it comes to politics, I frequently describe myself as purple. I routinely receive emails from the Squad and others from Trump and his supporters. Both sides think I’m one of them. I find all of this rather amusing. It just confirms that I might be doing something right since everyone thinks I’m part of their particular clan. I guess I’m all inclusive!? LOL

In any case, I like your description of just being nuanced. I think I will borrow it for myself if there is no objection. Life is complex and cannot be reduced to simplistic concepts. Rallying cries may be great for mobilizing supporters, but rarely are effective in and of themselves in bringing about thoughtful substantive change. They might be the trigger for awareness , but do not reflect the reality of what is needed to actually solve the problem. Hyperbole never does. Applying a thoughtful approach is difficult and the best resolution is not always clear. It requires work, self examination, and reflection that many refuse to do. Certainty about the correctness of one’s cause can be a strong motivator. However it does not allow room for doubt, which is necessary in the long run to modify perspective and adjust to a different, more tenable position. Rarely is anyone completely correct at the outset. That is why we debate important issues. No one has a monopoly on the truth.
