"I am never really a slave to my own ideological beliefs, I can change anytime."

That is really a good skill to have and not a common one. I see people who I know know the things that they believe are flawed but they hold onto those beliefs because it is easier than changing.

I heard about that social credit score thing. Haha I have done enough shit talking that if that type of thing ever happened here, they are sending me straight to prison lol.

Yeah it is easier. At some point, I was like believing the same thing as everyone else. But, I'm more pragmatic. I changed my beliefs based on my own experiences or whatever worked for me.

Me too lol.

Haha If only more people were willing to do that, we might be able to address some of the problems we create for ourselves.

People cling to their beliefs, that's the problem these days. We live in a polarized society.

It is sad but true. The thing that gets me is when I see people agree on both sides but they don't know that they agree because they assume the other side is always wrong.
