NOTE

Are You Really Thinking About Ideas?

A relative of mine, who is a Republican, had a blank book on the table during a family gathering. This made me realize the importance of independent thought and not blindly following a political ideology. I believe it's crucial to think critically about ideas and not just support a team. I even challenged myself to find good ideas from both Donald Trump and Joe Biden, acknowledging that they both had valid questions about the status quo. Trump's lack of civility can also be seen as a strength, as excessive politeness can hinder progress. It's important to ask difficult questions and not dismiss them without consideration.
