We don’t all have to agree with each other in America; the whole point of liberty is that we don’t really have to. What binds us is not our opinions so much as the fact that we’re free to have then. newsweek.com/marianne-willia…

America's Unity in Diversity

We must get over the idea that someone has to agree with us, or be the same age as us, or look like us or love like us, to be one with us.

How patriarchy treats brilliant women. National media mocked @marwilliamson when she sought a position as our national leader but now that that was torpedoed, she’s invited back by the SAME news outlets for wise words about unity. Women are ‘cleansed’ by stripping them of power.

Mocked for saying things I didn’t say, writing things I didn’t write & for being who I’m not (by women as well as by men btw). Vilified & then eraced. Yet others who weren’t politicians - & were thus as “unqualified to run”- are discussing their speaking slots at the convention.

Then we should also agree that we can disagree with someone’s opinion without feeling the need to insult them.

Unless of course you are a Trump supporter. I don't believe that you really feel this way.

Yes--You nailed it--that is exactly what I have been saying! Civil discourse, non violent communication skills, basic compassion and a modicum of acceptance has been sorely missing from the dialog--on both sides.

Dangerous myths. What binds society is social contract. Understanding one subsumes ego for common good. US has NEVER had that. Slavery, child labor, gilded age, robber baron age, govt/Pinkertons murdering workers, sending millions jobs 2 overseas slave labor. U live in ego bubble
