More helpful Thanksgiving ideas
These conversation starters are from Steven Hassan on Twitter, who is an expert on cults and deprogramming. There’s a link to the original post at the bottom. Here are some ideas to get conversations started in ways to build up relationships. The point is to build bridges so that we are less likely to demonize people who have different ideas.
As you have these conversations, look for things that surprise you, delight you and those you are curious about. Ask questions (as I talk about in this newsletter). And don’t forget to listen and agree with what you can.
