What are you passionate about?...
Well, in my opinion, if i am willing to spend time debating on a gaming forum about something, as opposed to doing my regular tasks of a Friday afternoon, then i must feel quite strongly about it. Which in-turn translates into being passionate somewhat. Perhaps it was the wrong choice of words, but i needed it for the analogy
90% of the time it's because I'm already watching the thread and you comment on it later on down the line. 10% of the time it's because I stumble into the thread from the front page while you're saying something. Don't give yourself that much credit hon :^)
Aww, you've even got a pet name for me now? I feel special
By the way, you really slickly dodged the question I initially asked, regarding why the in/out referendum was a good idea in your eyes. Don't argue just for the sake of arguing, especially if it isn't productive
Apart from the odd slur about the regressive left and the occasional rant about transgender bathrooms, i don't generally share my political views in the public domain since the world is dominated by left-wing policies and some of them frighten me a touch, especially those policies regarding hate-speech (A.K.A The quashing of the first amendment) which has enabled the police to arrest somebody for speaking their mind on an online platforms. So allow me to don my tin-foil hat here and ask if we could continue the topic of Brexit in PM's?
I've been perusing Flipboard the last few weeks (and I have a relatively balanced set of sources, I should add. I could probably tune it better for international news, though), and I've heard various reasons why leaving would be a bad idea, but this is legit the first I've heard of it being an issue of race. I guess thank you for giving me that piece of info? I legitimately didn't know it before now
No worries mate, glad I could help
And yes, balanced news sources are the key to being well informed. If somebody were getting their news primarily from Vox, Salon, Buzzfeed, MTV Decoded, wow, they would have a very warped view of the world and current political climate!
I'm on the other side of the political compass, but that doesn't mean i take everything written on Breitbart, Fox News etc. etc. as gospel either. I'm always dubious of everything.
