    Yeah, a good buddy of mine is a hardcore socialist and I am a libertarian. We sometimes talk politics and still have fun. Why not. Discuss and let the best argument win.

        Most important is a decent attitude and have the respect to listen to someones opinions. I don’t believe socialists are evil but I do believe a lot of their policies are. Even if the intention is good. I am a libertarian but not an anarchist so that means I do believe there is a role for governments. I think that’s an interesting start for a friendly conversation with anyone 🍻

            I don’t think most MAGA think gay or trans is a problem as well. The democrats pushed this agenda over the top and it was getting ridiculous. For me personally I just want to see DOGE succeed ] I don’t care about the rest. Too much bureaucrats and regulations. Glad the tarrifs are not implemented (for now) as everyone feared. It will be a wild ride, but tbh I really think it is needed. Whatever comes out of this will be better. Cleaning up needs to be done. Government spending is/was out of control.

            Hope DOGE and Milei will be an example for the EU where bureaucracy and regulation is an even bigger problem.

                Indeed - I even think a lot of Democrats will agree if you leave Trump out of the conversation. Most bureaucrats are Democrats but most Democrats are not bureaucrats.
