The only place to discuss politics is the same place we’re supposed to talk about gun violence.
A concrete, soundproof bunker that you need to climb a 60-foot ladder down to seal yourself inside, ensure nobody is around, and whisper your grievances into a small vinyl bag, then tie the bag up with a zip-tie and place it inside a mason jar and return it to the shelf inside the bunker.
This is how you protest as an American if you want to follow established societal norms and etiquette. Anything else and it’s between 4 and 10 gunshots to the chest, face and back.
the whole idea that discussing politics is lame is a neoliberal brainworm.
Don’t discuss politics with your family, just enjoy the time! — okay weird but sure
Don’t talk politics with your friends — what the hell why not
No politics at work — that’s a deeply political place wtf are we doing

When people say no politics, that means no arguing. This applies to office politics, family politics, and of course government politics.
which ends up just meaning the racist uncle gets to shout his opinion and don’t you dare tell him he is wrong.
Fuck him, let him be wrong. In the Midwest we just ignore that person and they end up passed out on the couch by 5pm.
let us be right instead, then.
part of the problem is because talking solution politics = annoying please stop, but racist/fascist rant = hes like this just let him be.
i can trace some parallels with our current conundrum.
