I'm gonna say something that will probably jinx this, but here goes. I'm shocked, SHOCKED, at how this forum here on Locals is unfolding. I've seen posts here that on Facebook would have triggered either Liberal or Conservative "elephants" to stampede with vitriol and reactivity, but instead here prompt thoughtful dialog, a supportive and inclusive attitude, and generally helpful conversation even when it's clear that people disagree on the fundamental politics of the subject. WHAT THE HELL. Could there be hope for us yet? Is the Alt-Middle really a thing?
This place is teaching me that the answer is a resounding yes. I'm so proud to be here with y'all in this Tribe 🙏
