Agreeing and Disagreeing is what "they" want. What's the other option?
Agreeing creates an "Echo Chamber" where there is little discussion for greater understanding of the other person.
Disagreeing creates division.
"They" are those who want to manipulate. "Divide and Conquer" is a tactic that has been and is today used to manipulate. (Think of a child asking Mommy for something, getting a "no" and then asking Daddy and getting a "yes":)). Our leaders often do this, instead of inspiring us.
How about "seeking to understand".
If I am "adamant" (not Adam Ant) about a position on a. topic and don't ask questions of someone on the other side of the story, or perhaps on the same side, I don't learn anything about the topic or the other person.
So, could it be a better plan to stop agreeing and disagreeing, and start being curious/exploring the other person (get a stronger relationship) and improve my understanding of a topic by seeking out others on both sides who have points of view.
What do you think could come from us NOT taking a stance (initially at least) and just seeking to understand?
