I love debate too...

But.critical thinking seems to be a lost art - the founding documents and other writings from the past are the only sources of what I can respect as fair debate.

In the present day, what passes for debate and discourse is full of lies and deception on the Left, and fantasy and fallacy on the Right.

There were rules that applied to the use of language for constructive argument, that have been cast aside in order to accommodate agenda, emotion and pride.

I understand why the Left s tempted - they know their evil thrives in deception and darkness.

But I see many on the Right falling for a temptation too - they are not satisfied to be humble servants like President Trump - they want to believe they are the chosen people - they imagine themselves vessels.

Q followers should go back and read the founding documents - they are full of humility. The founders’ argument for Liberty was not based on smug self-assurance that they were the exclusive keepers of God’s Plan. It was based on the opposite - a humble respect for disparate views and beliefs of individuals - a wariness of organized religion and others groupings - the need to protect individuals from groups.
