Independent thinkers are in a position to see with more clarity than those who have committed to a political "side" or ideology. They are able to consider situations, facts, and perspectives from a less biased angle. When everyone is engaged in identity politics, then everyone ends up believing that what they are doing is "right." Moderates, centrists, and independents have the opportunity to use their discernment and balanced viewpoints to speak up, with civility and respect, on otherwise divisive and polarizing matters.
