I think everybody's in one issue or the other. There's always people who are too shrill or too worried on any issue. That's why i love on all sides, because that's the way thing actually. I want to see the full picture. 75% of americans would prefer news that's not slanted one way or the other from pure research. R 78%. And that's a big change from just two years before that. The real question is, what works? What do we do?
Most Americans support climate action, but you wouldn’t know it from Congress or the courts – or from most of the media. People on both the left and the right experience the same devastating floods, the same life-threatening heatwaves and the same catastrophic wildfires. Yet individuals tend to socialize within insulated political tribes, operate in completely different information bubbles and see the problems and solutions through different lenses. How can we learn to bridge ideological divides, develop trust, and find the common ground needed to rebuild respectful civil discourse?
