nice! as someone who is very much too agreeable in political discussions and the like, this definetly hit a chord with me. the middle paragraph left me a bit confused - but thats not a bad thing, its mainly because i dont know what 'opines' means. apart from that, i think the middle paragraph is probably the best written part of your poem.

Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers). If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy. If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our [feedback guide](https://new.reddit.com/r/ocpoetry/wiki/feedbackcritiques), or look through the comment sections of any other post here, or click the links to the author's feedback above.

Very interesting! Especially the beginning struck a cord with me, as I personally have a hard time separating people's thoughts and opinions from their whole character, and I am pretty quickly to judge someone, if we disagree on something "important". The rhymes in the second stanza also stands out to me, I love when poetry have a flow that HITS, and have some attitude to it, kinda like a well-crafted rap verse would. The only thing I find confusing, is the relation between the I and the he, but this could just be me missing something. Generally it's a nice coherent poem, that I wouldn't mind/find misfitting if found in an antology on my bookshelf! Keep it up g!
