    I can easily say the same about you. But I have been asked not to continue this one. Verifiable facts lmao... Thanks for that one. Opinions.

        I have provided sources with my arguments in the present and I am vastly changed as a person since that time.

        I am not going back to what I was. I have a better sense of who I am. I already brought up certain facts about my identity. I am more comfortable in my own skin.

        • I will say again I am sorry for insulting anyone (other than BK). And I mean that.

          Half assed apology this isn't. I was wrong in being too harsh with some on here.

            This is a well-documented cognitive flaw. If you have enough self-awareness to notice that it's happening, have a little more and realize it might not be justified. Self doubt is good. Learn to embrace it. Then you don't need to have an identity based on your investment in any one position, but an identity invested in skepticism and critical thinking.

                Oh I have done plenty of self discovery in my life. Self doubt with my present political beliefs? Not really. It took me years to come to these conclusions. Being truly left wing was the only way I could even begin embracing who I am. It is part of my identity as a whole and something I will not compromise on.

                I will lighten up a bit though. I realize many who I had disagreements with do agree with me on other subjects, and disagreements should not evolve into bickering and hate. There is enough hatred and arguing in this world as it is.

                  Speaking of sports...

                  As far as football (for example), I am an Atletico Madrid and AC Milan fan. Atletico is my core favorite... Too bad we always get close to the CL but can never bag the damn thing. Ugh.

                  And AC Milan... Well... is a sad joke right now. How the mighty have fallen.

                        Yep.

                          Drag shows? Sure, I guess, if being human is your thing.

                            • yeah, reading old threads is nice, but it always makes me a little sad when i realise how many quality posters we've lost over the years.
