Something that's extremely frustrating is the number of people who take people's political "beliefs" at face value. In fact, people are contradictory and also we lie about a lot because we need to save face.

What they believe is also highly dependent on how you ask the question, which is an omission from a lot of journalism about polling that borders on dishonesty

And also, most people really don't know things, though they like to pretend they are experts at everything If I am talking about say, the Middle East I always want to make it clear, I DON'T know all the history and the complexities of the situation Sometimes you realize your opinion is IRRELEVANT

Pardon me for believing the words someone says... This keeps biting me in the ass because I have made the mistake of trusting leftists to be kind or honest, then only after getting hurt or messed with then learn they just had shit values the whole time. Skill issue on my part
