Back in my late teens/early 20s, I was a logic-only libertarian and man, I hated "overly emotional" people and their "overly emotional" reasoning.
I am so grateful I never lost my introspection. Because the most _logical_ thing for me to reason was "Huh... If everyone is so emotional, I might be the emotionally deficient one. And maybe I should consider a society that doesn't cater to just people like me."
Anyway, I did a lot more listening and stopped being libertarian.

@BlurTheFur I also briefly considered rationalism/effective altruism, but they lost me when they took thought experiments too seriously and started factoring future potential digital beings in their welfare calculations.
