    It comes off so elitist when people like you and OP act this way though. Most people don’t like politics or even want to get involved. A majority of those ones that do get involved have such a baseline understanding of what their political affiliation is it’s shocking. Hell, for most of my life I didn’t know better either. I always considered myself a liberal Democrat, but better realized that I’m fully a progressive.

    It’s better to be open and supportive of people, and to talk to them about their beliefs. It goes a lot better than ridiculing then over it. You catch a lot more flies with honey, than with vinegar.
