I don’t know, sometimes the though of “what if all my leftist ideas are false? What if trans people are just mentally ill? What if gay people are just deviants?”
I honestly really don’t like it…

It’s good to question your beliefs I guess, it’s how you grow, but it sometimes makes me really uncomfortable. Why does this happen? Can I stop it? Should I?

    This is good, but I’d add that you can get closer, and you can get closer faster, but truth will always be over the horizon.

      For sure. Each “truth” we hold dear might be the next one we drop as we learn a new more accurate truth to replace it.

      We can only hold so much knowledge, so there will always be room to improve.

      And I’m even still thankful for all of the half-truths that served me well along my journey.
