This isn't entirely what I believe, but I'm making a point

1. Every gun law is an infringement (unless it happens to transgenders).
   
2. Ban abortion.  Abortion is murder.  Murder should either be punished with death or life imprisonment.  So treat abortion the same way.
   
3. End single motherhood for harmless fathers (unless the father is an illegal alien, then kick him out because it's the LAW and the LAW must be upheld no matter what (unless it's the Roe V Wade law)).
   
4. America first!  No money for foreign countries (unless Israel, because they stand for freedom (but only the freedoms we don't like such as legalized abortion and other satanic rights (biblical rights, like the right to freely move where you want they don't do))).
   
5. Parental rights (unless the parents look like this: Example)
   
6. Like Trump because he runs the country like a business, hate wokeness, and call businesses woke (and like Trump because he runs the country like a business).
   
7. My body my choice for vaccination (but not for cannabis; out of my most agreeable states; only 13% of them legalized recreational weed; the states I don't like, about 90% of them legalized weed).
   
8. God is always morally correct on everything (unless it's any of these verses: 20 Bible Passages for Curious Leftists, then I'm against it).
   
9. Taxation is theft (and fund our police).
   
10. Decentralize the government, less people per representative (so government becomes less centralized).  In other words, agreeing with this guy: How to Make Congress Less Terrible | Robert Reich (youtube.com).  But wait, he uses buzzwords like, "Women" and, "People of Color", and he's on the left, so we can't agree with a left-wing point.
    
11. I support the free market; free market capitalism is great (unless the free market (aka Big Tech) decides to take down my speech because they have decided that my speech is harmful for their profit margins, then I don't like the free market).  The free market using child slaves to produce goods cheaper; I don't protest against that.  The free market taking down electronic text that I wrote; I will get upset at that and I will protest against that.
    
12. I support free speech so much; it's why I agree with this woman that wants to take away certain people's right to vote because they tend to vote blue: Marjorie Taylor Greene Calls It 'Wise' to Bar Democrats Who Move to Red States From Voting (newsweek.com) (or at least I won't actively call her out on it because she is on my team).
    
13. I'm going to act like my mind can be persuaded and other people are going to assume my mind can be persuaded (and maybe I will actually believe that my mind can be persuaded), but subconsciously, I won't be able to have my mind persuaded because I have a party to stick too.  My party's orthodoxy can't be challenged no matter what, no matter how little it makes sense.  Until I break partisan bonds, my mind will never be changed.
    

I'm going to act like my mind can be persuaded and other people are going to assume my mind can be persuaded (and maybe I will actually believe that my mind can be persuaded), but subconsciously, I won't be able to have my mind persuaded because I have a party to stick too. 

 i am different than you in beliefs... i stick to general principle on most things

 and understand that reasonable people can differ on details

Truth table it out. What happens when you assume that other minds are irrational?

If you're right then what do you gain?

If others are rational, but you don't give them a chance to be convinced, then to them you aren't susceptible to reason as well.

 you spend way too much time trying to find consistency in beliefs and then attack anyone who doesn't follow your views.

someone can be against abortion cause it's a human but believe in big government which isn't party line, others may be for it cause they think the localest decision is the woman, even if they prefer local governing decisions in generl and aren't liberal. 

If I'm right, hopefully I can convince others to break out of partisan cults, and then once that happens, then they become more persuadable once they realize that their party was forming their own beliefs instead of their own mentality.

If others are rationale, then they would be open about the times when they are willing to buck orthodoxy and be as passionate about the issue they buck orthodoxy with their party on as if it was an issue accepted by their party.

When was the last time you heard someone like YouFoundLxam advocate a left wing position he genuinely believes in?  Or Dr. Franklin?

They are afraid to call out their own party on issues where they think their party deserves critisism.

There are many thought patterns that lead back to the same policy/tactic/code of behavior. 

How do we/you know we aren't the crazy ones?

You will never convince someone that their epistemology is wrong. Epistemology is what creates knowledge and is the only knob by which convincing can happen. For example if someone believe the bible is the only source of knowledge, you can only convince them of anything by twisting the bible to make your case.

Making a good argument is also the only way to convince a rational person who is not in a cult (or freakishly loyal to a party or whatever word you want to use).

If cult:

   argue

else:
