So much of our current social and political discourse is based on proving the other wrong i.e. winning the argument. We don't demonstrate enough empathy to understand where the "other" is coming from and the merits of their point. A black and white world is a construct of our own imagination and our desire to imprint our views on to others. It ignores the beauty that the synthesis or fusion of diverse ideas enables.
John had made a life out of proving people wrong. He took pride in being able to argue against any position and win. He was a talk show host. One night when he was grilling a guest who was making a point around having improved gun controls in place. John, barely let she finish her sentences, was adversarial and was not listening. At the end of the segment the guest said; "John, do you want to win the argument, or make a difference".

"Fuck off, it doesn't make a fuck difference."

May 4th is national make a goddamn difference day, because we need to make a goddamn difference if we are adamant about not going extinct as a species in the next 10-20 years.
I’m not going to tell you how to use national make a goddamn difference day in a sentence because it’s self explanatory lol
