You're welcome to do that, but learn to do it properly. If you're just looking to preach and be outraged, then you're part of the problem. You can't change others, but you can change yourself.
I personally love podcasts. I'll always be able to recommend from there:
You Are Not So Smart: 306 - I Never Thought of it That Way - Mónica Guzmán (rebroadcast). Episode webpage and Media file
If a black man can make friends with the most racist KKK members, and actually get them to change their minds through conversation, then there's hope for anyone.
You’re not gonna convince me of your rule if you break it.
I think that's the only recommendation I've ever seen for You Are Not So Smart and that episode is particularly good. Daryl Davis is a truly amazing person.
This is what pisses me off by left wing debate bros who basically just make their brand "trigger the conservatives." They're no better.
(I am not advocating for some sort of friendly both sides thing as an alternative.)
Ah second comment! Got ya!
