Nice. Honestly, pretty well corralled, I would say.
Incidentally, I'm amused that one of the more popular responses includes the classic phrase
Which I tend to notice after having had it explained well to me once by someone with more empathy than my own.
I won't belabor it, but they pointed out to me that being tempted to say "Why can't we all just get along" is usually a sign that we haven't actually listened effectively.
So now when I hear or read "Why can't we all just get along", I see that [X] and hear the buzz from "Family Feud", and hear one of the Family Feud host kindly say "No points. Let's try again."
Yeah, that's basically saying "Can't we just ignore the issue?", which is easy if you're the one who the issue isn't affecting.
