I fell in a youtube hole (you know, where you watch this, and it leads to that and that leads to another....) and I stumbled onto this interview.
Dave Rubin, whose name I knew and little else about him, interviewed and chatted with Ben Shapiro, a conservative libertarian (note both words lower case is intentional) in 2016 on gay marriage, gun control, and Piers Morgan.

It was only after this ~half hour interview was concluded that I read that Mr. Rubin is mostly liberal (though that was briefly mentioned during the chat) and that he also is a gay man.
This is what these conversations should look like. No one got riled, no one raised voices, no one called names.
This was a decent, refreshing example of how things can go when there is mutual respect for the other person's opinion, which does not require agreement with that opinion.
I liked Shapiro's work even before seeing this; I listen to his podcasts once or twice a week or so. Very impressive.
Blessings,
Bill
