@alexmahdavi@seanmdav Yeah absolutely agree with that. Conservatives generally see criticism of American policy or culture from liberals as a sign of lack of patriotism, and see the same behavior from themselves as just criticism of leftist policy and culture.
@alexmahdavi@seanmdav Agree with the principle here, but you might be showing some "grew up in Boston" bias. Flags there are part of the revolutionary history of the region. In my experience liberals that grow up elsewhere see display of the flag on private property as a symbol of ultra nationalism

@nicholasjkurian The Bible says nothing about time dilation or gravity, the topics of Einstein's theories. Natural selection and global warming are both easy to understand. The issue isn't communication, it's the implications of what those theories being true mean for other articles of faith.
@ASlavitt You are not responsible for other's actions. If the people you spread it to don't wear masks and go to parties that's on them. So in this situation you're only responsible for infecting one more person.
