    If somebody can debate their political viewpoints with me, that instantly earns them some respect points. I’m just tired of some people defining their political views as just being against other views

      Yep. When I encounter the rare Republican who can actually fully articulate a stance on an actual political issue, it’s always a pleasant shock.

      I’ve attempted to discuss my political views to people, but it seems more often than not that as soon as I identify myself as conservative, I get shut down. This is despite the fact that more often than not, I vote democrat, support abortion, support legalized weed, want LGBT rights, a complete reorganization of the legal system, and an actual working social safety net. But I believe the federal government is too big, states should decide more for themselves and businesses and corporations are NOT people.
