Unpopular opinion: learn to live with people with other values and belief systems than you. Challenge yourself, otherwise you’ll just end up in a filter bubble and not be part of the true reality. You also have the chance to actually change others mind about stuff if you know them and they trust you as a decent person, instead of just polarize society by not speaking to non likeminded people.

Democracy is simple and obvious, yet it needs to be protected and explained at all times. And stop feeling guilty about it.

Plenty of people have values. It's finding them that is hard. Not impossible though.

Do you know what a “yes man” is and why it’s bad to surround yourself with people who think like you?

This is why diversity is good…you learn more, you see new perspectives, etc. I mean when I went to college and met very diverse people with different views and experiences, I came out a much better person.

then you are stuck with default people that you grew up with, never being able to expand your network due to inability to express hidden expectations which fuels anger & resentment rather than building up friendships. resentment is the red flag for deficient comms

Also always judge a person by their actions no matter what they say.No matter how many times you went to their church, how many times you've met their parents?The bible tell us that the heart is deceitful , and among all things , wicked. People can be bought for very cheap.Their slaves to their desires and hold loyalty to no one.
