so the negative messages this activity overcame was
disbelief in global warming with a global warming activist
nonacceptance of transgenderism with someone who is transgender
and anti-feminism with an avowed feminist

or basically all "hateful" right wing ideals facing a reasonable person on the left embodying those ideals. And the video concludes with the 'bigoted' person on the right migrating away from those ideals to compromise with their new friend.

I like the idea and the execution, but this is yet ANOTHER not-so subtle jab against conservative viewpoints. Why not balance it out with even *one* lefty idealist who comes face to face with a compassionate embodiment of their ideals on the right?

How about a Black Lives matter activist paired with someone whose business was destroyed in the BLM riots
how about a traditional marriage supporter fired from their job because of LGBT activism paired with an LGBT activist
How about an pro-choicer paired with an adult who survived an abortion

nope, can't do that can we? This media diet we're fed every day is just insidious. Such nice, feel-good message like this are still one-sided and created by those who can only see one side to life. Theirs. Sure we can all feel good, just as long as you come around to my side of the argument. And now i don't feel so good about your feel-good message anymore.
