I was shocked how unaccustomed I felt watching two adults actually act like adults and respect each other despite different opinions, that's for sure. It's insane how much more balanced, informative and mature a mere youtuber (no insult here) sounds in comparison to the mainstream media which is backed by millions of dollars and still the go to for many people. This isn't to say everyone needs to keep their cool all the time, but they get the most polarized people fighting with each other for ratings and it's ridiculous. It's not like they get heated sometimes, they're constantly heated.
Since you've come to steemit, I've had an opportunity to see more of your work and develop respect for what you do. I'm not so sure I want my daily dose of politics now, but I'll be checking in everyone once in a while. :-D
Yeah it can be jarring for sure haha
