I only have two on my list because I just ignore 99% of the bull.I often wonder if the fact that someone has a massive ignore list tells us more about that person than it does about the people on it.

So basically any opposing view? By ignoring a problem, you only allow it to grow, and I'm speaking for any president or candidate. If you can't at least attempt to see the other side and tolerate differing opinions, then you are the problem, not them.

I've seen dudes make emphasis-scarequotes "jokes" about lynching and hate violence, maybe trotting out tired plattitudes about "getting over it" isn't the wisest response to this thread.
No, from the results of the poll getting over it looks like the best advice. Most people who voted look like they would rather 'get over it', than ignore someone. Heh

How so? I feel that a better reflection of character is to display the ability to tolerate opposing views. How do you lack "values" when you merely learn to accept that some people think differently than you?
