Independent thinker valuing discussions grounded in reason, not emotions.

Open to reconsider my views in light of good-faith counter-arguments but also willing to defend what’s right, even when it’s unpopular. My goal is to engage in dialogue that seeks truth rather than scoring points.

    You seem to be implying that is the reason I find myself disliking him less now than in 2016 which couldn’t be further from the truth. That’s among the most pressing arguments against him.

    That’s equally unfair as me saying ‘I don’t see how Harris supporting gender-affirming surgeries for undocumented immigrants in custody’ makes people want to vote for her.

    I find myself disliking him less this time around than I did in 2016, and I don’t exactly know why. Sure, there’s a ton I disagree with him on, but that applies to both candidates. I guess I have some sympathy for the people in the center who were pushed away by the left and ended up on the right.

    No need to worry though - I’m not a US citizen, so I’m not voting for him.

    Left my previous job a little more than 6 months ago and became self-employed. I’m doing basically the exact same thing as I did before but it has stopped feeling like work. Sure, some days I might work till the evening but on other days I might only have a few hour job and then I get to go back home. I’m currently enjoying my 3 day weeked because I simply didn’t take any jobs for friday but instead pushed them all to next week. It’s pretty nice I must say. If it’s something you’ve considered I strongly recommend giving it a shot.
