It seems so binary in the u s (presuming that's where you're from, apologies if I'm wrong). I'm glad it's not quite so rigid where I'm from. A lot more people seem to have different leanings depending on the issue in ireland.
Granted, there are still a lot of people who are commited to their party pretty rigidly, and i see a lot of people basing their politics off of americans a lot due to social media. Its frustrating how much u.s politics gets discussed by some, mostly hard left or hard righters in my experience.
There are parts of the U.S. that are much more grounded to real issues that actually effect them and are not interested in the culture or political wars we commonly see on social media.
Glad to hear other parts of the world are still functioning socially but it is a shame that are politics are invading. Maybe its the new oil!
