Re: do you discuss politics with your friends?

[pantswarrior]

I celebrate/complain a whole lot about various issues with those who are proud liberals like myself, and I do know a few people who are perfectly reasonable conservatives that I can have interesting, productive discussions with where everyone is respectful and we generally come to the agreement that we both are really looking for the same thing (justice, fairness, peace), we just have different ideas about how to bring it about, and we recognize that nothing is an instant fix anyway, so history will decide.

But there are some people who just snap at you the second you share a dissenting opinion and shout down even proven facts (and this includes some on the left wing side who either don't seem to think that Obama's administration can do anything wrong, or think that he's not liberal enough and seemingly believe he should just ram all kinds of unlikely legislature through by force), and I avoid mentioning anything about politics, religion, or the military around them.

Family tends to be the worst though. One of my aunts is definitely the worst offender. (Once I was notified that she'd left a comment on a political FB post, and she said that she has family in [my part of state] and all of us are over-educated stuffy government payroll white-collar employees who don't understand the working class. Despite the fact that I have not taken a college course since BEFORE I got my GED after dropping out of high school, and worked 3rd shift at a gas station for YEARS up until a couple years ago, and my brother worked his way through college via Wendy's and 7-11 - and we work at the same place, which is not in fact government payroll. Of course to my face she tells me I had set such a good example by how I handled my years in retail!) I just do not comment on her political posts, and if she comments on mine, I flat-out ignore her walls of text and links to ultra-conservative websites full of four-letter words. :P
