In this episode, Neil Thakore and I discuss what can be done to reduce the political divide and bring people together?
Other questions we discussed included:
- Should we stop placing people in one of two buckets by labelling them as either left-wing and right-wing, liberal or conservative, democrat or republican?
- Why can’t we remove the party names? Why do you have to run as a democrat or republican?
- If we have to keep the parties, do you think adding a 3rd party in the U.S. would help reduce polarization?
- Do you think the divide is growing or shrinking? How can we tell if it’s actually growing or shrinking? What data can we use to determine this?
- What do you think about countries like Russia purposely trying to create a divide by spreading polarizing news?
- Do you consider yourself left-wing or right-wing? Is it a cop-out if someone says they don’t identify as either?
- Should I engage in conversation with people I disagree with or block them out?
- What do you think about political attack ads? Should they be banned?
- What does Trump getting elected say about the state of the political divide?
- What issues do you think are most polarizing? Which are the least polarizing?
