Yes I change my mind on a person who changed their values. Although it’s not as if I change it to be completely 180° from my original estimations of the person.

I think it’s soulless to never allow a person to grow or change when presented new information no matter what age they are.

Or, are only young people allowed to change their minds? Or is nobody?

I mean I’ve had pretty stupid ideas about things ranging from communism as a good political ideology to believing that the UK would be better outside of the EU. But when presented with new information I changed my opinion. I would hope people don’t treat me as a communist or a brexiter.




> Or is nobody?

I think I've made it clear that my position is that absolutely no one should ever be allowed to change their minds. Again, thank you for being civil.


That’s your prerogative I guess. I definitely don’t subscribe to the same ideology.

In fact I find it worrying that you do. To each their own I guess.

Thank you for being civil. :)
