People will never agree about everything, I think you strike a good balance between expressing your values and having consideration for others.

The best is to avoid argument and say what you think in a good manner to see if the other person is prone to listen to what you have to say. If not, let him to realise by himself.

AzulOscuro, The world will never be perfect because people (including our leaders) are so imperfect but I do think that this crisis is causing some things to change. With change comes risk but also opportunity for some. Right now, in the USA, our Congress is proposing many changes. Some of it seems really good to me. I agree with both you and Discombobulated that the crisis has highlighted that many, many people in this world do not have the food, shelter and healthcare that they need. I heard a doctor explain that the most important thing you can do to protect yourself from COVID is have a health immune system (even the vaccinations work better when your immune system is healthy) . This is very hard for people who do not have their basic needs met to do.
