Okay, you're first mistake is assuming we're all people. Some of us are actually creatures from the crushing depths of the ocean. But we'll let this one slide. We're happy to have aboard but what exactly is it that you want advice with? Personally the only thing I can think of is don't be afraid to listen to opposing views. Keep an open mind. And no matter the party, everyone has something to bring to the table. With that said, welcome to PF.
Hi. Being new here myself, I've found that Individual Liberty isn't popular here. That's the best tip I have. And if you upset the wrong liberal/socialst/progressive by discussing liberty things, then you might get an infraction. I speak from experience. Of course, if you're a socialist/progressive/liberal it seems like you can be as mean spirited, antagonistic, and combative as you want. Which is observable. But...that's just been my observation.
