It seems that over the past couple months or so, I started having and engaging in more political discussions (on account of the presidential election). When you’re in that space, it feels like you need to have an opinion on every little thing. Geopolitics, taxes, financial policy, etc. How important is it to educate myself and ask questions? Do you feel that pressure to have an opinion on everything?

edit: I don’t think this question is about politics, but if it is, I can delete this.

    Can I have your opinion on the weather on Raxacoricofallapatorians right now?

    • You’ve never heard of it? Absolutely fair that you don’t have an opinion then.
    • You don’t care? Also fair not to have an opinion.
    • You haven’t bothered to stay up to date with Slitheen weather politics? Fair, no need to have an opinion.
    • You just don’t want to form an opinion, just cuz? Yep, fair, no opinion it is.

    Heck, you can have an opinion and just go “fuck it, no I am not sharing it”. That’s also fine.
