You can have all those ideals without it being about your favorite team. Trump bad Biden good is nothing but a circle jerk on this platform the same as Biden bad Trump good is on other platforms. Our political system is fucked. Everyone's opinion is valid, but Trump would have gained nowhere near the unfounded respect he has from his party if he wasn't practically the only point of conversation his whole presidency. They like him because you don't. They'll like him more the more he angers you. They are using our tribalism to hold us down and in place.

You gotta slow waay down with your kids. Remember, their brains are still developing all the pathways they will use in life, but it takes time. If you've only recently been allowed with them, they are not going to understand any nuance of the situation immediately. They will in time and probably gladly accept anything you offer one day.

Most people are able to do this. Some have an on/off switch that stays jammed in the on position most of the time.
