When everything is about Democrat vs Republican...

[kentuck]

There is no right or wrong. There is only my side or the wrong side.

There is no legal vs illegal. It is all just a partisan witch-hunt.

There is no moral vs immoral. They all do it.

There is no truth vs lie. It all depends on who is reporting it.

There is nothing your side can do to persuade the other that they are wrong in any way.

In my opinion, this is where we are as a country. Propaganda has been used very successfully to divide the nation. Who knows where it will all end?

2. Well said kentuck.

Last night I read a primer on dialecic - a tool to improve our reasoning ability in the search of truth.
The five steps:

Truth is the goal
Be willing to be refuted
Listen
Question
Follow

I think we are on the wrong planet.

3. I would add one thing:

When it has been substantiated that one is wrong, thank the other person for increasing you knowledge. It's just polite.

4. Yes, agreed. Part of Listening is "Be willing to be refuted,." Your point takes it a step further.
