Being confined to camp in the bush is similar to being confined in a boat at sea.
Not everyone shares the same viewpoints as another, and different viewpoints can lead to friction. As I said at least make an effort to get on with each other and the whole trip can be a pleasant experience for all members of the trip.

I think that the transition from boyhood to manhood is to learn to get on and cooperate with those around you, is important.
Hunting and fishing trips are ideal for this training with good roll models and mentors,

Unfortunately some missed out on the growing/learning experience.
This is why I rely on the unspoken mind, a good crew should understand the unspoken word on how to get on and enjoy the actual experience together as a team.
This is my view anyhow.

Cheers

Kind of agree but some people can discuss politics/economics without not getting along. I do it all the time. Although if we're talking about politics like lately on this forum then yes I agree. I agree though it's simple to read the room if politics/economics isn't something guys are into then change the subject and don't bring it up. I have mates like yourself who I know don't give a shot of want to discuss it. And other mates that we can chew each others ear off solving all the problems of the world. Like you said just got to get along.
