i think being exposed to and socialized to be able to connect to many different types of people is a great innoculator against becoming a reactionary. it really keeps you in a “well it depends” mindset which i think is the one best equipped to grasp reality
the “bryce and trinity are scamming” narrative is so lazy to me. i prefer to go with the more nuanced and researched stance that a 30 year old man has no business being romantically involved with a 22 year old woman.
