Diversity

Just a comment for those who have been unhappy with other LJ friend's comments in their blogs on the election.

I've been on the net since 1996 or so (and some other online stuff prior to that). I've meet many different people through e-mail and lj. Many of these people are very different from my own life - here are two examples:

Republican cat lovers
Moms who are in "poly" lifestyles


I have learned a lot from meeting all these different people - I just prefer to agree to disagree on somethings, especially when the disagreement isn't the topic of the particular list.

It's not an lj person

But her sig line e-mail was pro Bush. Since it was a cat list, I ignored.

I was just joking with you, and "outing" myself as the other one on the list by poking fun at the other one. Also, most cat people I know, I have NO IDEA of their political affiliation, because it never came up. So finding that probably about half of them are Republicans wouldn't at all surprise me.
