Because every single time the left agrees to sit down and have a conversation with “reason and logical arguments” they get met with bad-fair arguments.

In spite of this, they keep offering. As soon as they do anything except bend-over-backwards to accomodate the right, they are met with “so much for the tolerant left”. Is it any surprise that people get fed up when this is all they’re ever met with. If you can’t come to the table and behave like an adult, don’t be surprised when you get relegated to the kids table.

I am quite worried for the future of the country when Republican voters elected not one but two adherents of QAnon to the House of Representatives.

What is any sort of reasoned debate about policy going to look like when one of the participants is coming into it with a set of beliefs as divergent from reality as QAnon?
