Understanding
Eh, I was glad to bring you over here to join this version.
If we can avoid the temptation to use it as partisan ammo, I think there's some understanding to be gained about what's really motivating all of us. I sometimes perceive Conservatives as suffering a constant but usually low-level anxiety about losing what they have, so the Liberal in me wants to try and reassure them that I don't really want to rob them. All my life I've listened to Conservatives fret that whatever was bothering them at the time would be The Death of America, and all I can say is: We're still here, aren't we? Relax!
But there you go, a Liberal personality in action. It may well sound like gibberish to Conservative ears. And that's worth exploring.
