two sides.

it feels like there's two sides

and no in between.

the other side is evil

don't agree with them

you can only condemn

no exceptions.

but

productivity stops

where

hostility begins.

you can't convince someone

through insults.

you convince someone

through respect.

and

admitting you're wrong

doesn't make you look dumb

it shows you're mature

so stop being so defensive.

because

god, i am sick

i am so, so sick

of these assumptions

and interruptions

and straw man arguments

because

people on the internet

just preach to the choir.

they make videos

about the other side

but not for the other side

meant for their own side

to point and laugh at.

don't you realize:

you're fueling the divide?

because

then the other side

sees your videos

the hatred grows

furthing those

beliefs that you are evil.

so

stop assuming

stop insulting

be respectful

be productive

and maybe we can mend,

maybe we can end

the fight that tears apart families

and friendships.

that tears apart our nation

as a whole.
