RE: Why is it Becoming "Uncool" to Point Out Misinformation?
It's "feels over facts" with people nowadays, not to mention this hyper-polarized political climate (partly-driven by news media)

Definitely feels over facts. Good way to put it and I used to consider myself pretty much on the feels side but that was long before the idea of offending someone became the biggest crime. I still do believe we should all try to respect one another but when facts start getting laughed at and feelings placed above all else, including freedom I have to reassess where I stand. I stand with facts and freedom. I still try my best not to hurt people's feels unnecessarily though. :)
yeah it can be a bit of a tricky "balancing act" at times, but the truth is still #1 in my book
