I spent some time reading a significant number of the replies, so I'll offer this as a suggestion for some of the repeated themes regarding overbearing political stance, decisive topics, etc:
encourage and support people discussing matters from an open perspective, trying to take a less decisive stance, or being open to different sides
encourage people and participate in conversation with people who show compassion or agree to disagree rather than write people off
ask questions instead of assuming
sometimes, opinions don't have to be right/wrong
opinions aren't facts
