Master Don Juan
I was talking to a friend about a subject an noticed something that was common amongst their view, especially with politics. Here are some of the common topics and questions I listen to and ask:
"Police are so corrupt they shouldn't be using that much force."
Me: "Have you been in a life threatening situation like they have been in?"
They say no.
"Men have it better than woman."
Me: "Have you ever experienced a situation where you felt that way?"
They say no and a mix of other things.
"Whites have so much more privilege than blacks."
Me: "When have you ever experienced a situation where you felt that you were literally superior than another human being despite living in the West Coast?
They say they haven't.
" Mexicans shouldn't be crossing our border"
Me: Well have you ever lived in dying poverty and under the rule of drug cartels?
They say no.
It just goes on and on... People voice an opinion from which they literally have no experience from besides hearing it on the news or reading it somewhere and they get this overtly strong opinion over it. Not taking shots here but I see this more often in the Democratic party...
