Why this rare political tweet is in mega-viral

At least one Democrat and a Republican can agree!


You do not need me to tell you that we live in politically divided times. But it may be for the reason why a particularly harmonious tweet has been sent in the day of the elections that currently happens mega-viral.

Fast top:Colton Winters,18, is a supporter of the democratic candidateBeto O'Rourke. But his friend,Kyle Benton, 16, is a strong supporter of the Republican Party. The Texas Senate race between Beto andTed Cruz was one of the most attached elections in the country. Nowadays is the kind of political divide that would end a friendship, but also cause a major antipathy between old friends.

But Winters posted a photo of the two of them in which he carries a "Beto for the Senate" and Benton wears a "Maker America Great," shirt, with the legend, "at the end of the day," recall- You always friendship is always more important than politics. "

The Tweet raised more than 10,000 retweets and more than 55,000 likes in only two days and many social media users thanked him for sending a message as positive in these dark times.

Of course, there were also detractors who said it was immoral to continue to be friends with people who support a government they consider heodious.

The winters had a beautiful message for these critics, which reminds them that America was founded not only on freedom of expression, but also on the right to hold different political and religious beliefs with impunity.

Speakingto theCorpus Christi Caller Times, Winters said, "We do not know politicians, but we know each other and we love each other. And we should not let these people in Washington break this friendship and our relationship."

Benton echoed his feeling, saying, "It should not change how we see each other ... It should simply be on whom we are. The policy should not really play any friends we have or Who we love or who we love with. It should not be important. "

As with the gap, it should be noted that this refreshing approach is part of what makesAnthony Bourdainand his showUnknown parts, so popular.Like a true humanistBourdain understood that you can have a meal with a person who holds very different opinions of yours and to bind again on the fact that you both love spicy noodles. He asked questions instead of making assumptions and attacks and always tried to understand and empathy on the other side. He has never demonstrated anyone for their beliefs and recognized that at the end of the day he had probably more similarities than the differences with the person he spoke, on the grounds that they were both human beings.

At today's day and age, we need this message more than ever. And for more stories about the importance of compassion, read themComforting stories about acts of amazing random kindness.
