This question’s on my mind because my coworker today mentioned they would vote for Trump if they could (mind you this is 2023, in Canada). I don’t generally have the talking points or the desire to fight about it, so I just deflected the conversation. But I often wish I was more strong-willed and could try to figure out why someone believes what they do and, if it’s invalid, then convince them otherwise.

Thus, I’m curious what you all would say or what you’ve done in the past!

    Ideally, yes. Practically? Not going to happen. We can’t expect it, we can only hope that’s what people are doing.

    This fact is why you hear some people say that not everyone should be allowed to vote. There is a staggering amount of ignorance in our society, that’s just how it is.

    It’s easy to excuse people when you have love in your heart. This may be what’s missing in our society.
