On polarised thinking yes some things I say can come out that way ,but it's for a reason . I do come from a consensus culture ( I'm Swedish ) but sometimes you can't compromise further . If you think the earth is flat and I think it's round , the political way of doing it is to agree it's slightly convex ?
