Something that I started seeing more and more on social media ( in reddit more than other social media websites) is that 2 people would argue and then a person would just state the other person political affliation and finish the discussion stating that he should be correct because of that.

The more I read the more I think that every idea should be studied as it could be correct.

    Some ideas have been studied extensively, some even tried in practice, producing demonstrable real world harm.

    Not every idea or belief has value or should be relitigated ad nauseum. It can in fact be harmful to treat some ideas as equally valid to others (ex. anti-vax beliefs).

    I would make efforts to cure yourself of this idea before you end up paralyzed with “enlightened centrism” and become incapable of establishing any beliefs that help anyone in any meaningful way.
