A far cry from just a few years ago when the progs were on top and this was the message:



They don’t want to talk about it now because losing hurts.

My sister-in-law is an uber Liberal from San Francisco.

It’s inevitable that political battle will happen in my house this Thanksgiving.

You’re right though. Enjoy the gathering politics aside.

When you bring up partisan politics at special occasions with your family, especially when you know or suspect that some of them may differ from you, all you’re doing is showing contempt for them and implying that you’re better than them.

The same pretty much applies in public and in mixed company when politics isn’t on the docket.

I never talk politics anywhere but here and occasionally with my b-i-l who agrees with me

It is boring in person. I am not changing anybody’s mind and they aren’t changing mine.

It’s like talking religion, don’t care to.

I like discussing it here with people who don’t matter.

Well, guess what, it is their turn to visit my house for Thanksgiving... I have already promised my wife that I will play nice but I know the SIL will go too far again and I will blast her arse and embarrass her and she will leave and the family will enjoy the rest of the weekend without her...


Be ruthless.

Sure, pal. There are two types of people. Half of us are on one team. The other half are on the other team. Our team are the good people. The other team are the bad people. Definitely how it works, and not at all a completely stupid way to see the world.

I know you are attempting to be cute (fail), but in current year politics, there really ARE good guys vs bad guys in this country.

While the Right has a sprinkling of baddies, the Left (the bad guys) have gone full-retard, batszhit, over the top, violent, unhinged crazy.

I would be happy if Politics and "tribalism" weren't such an extreme thing nowadays, but it wasn't the good guys that made it this way....pretty stupid if you can't see that.

Exactly what i said. There are two teams. Half of us are on one team. The other half are on the other team. We are the good people. They are the bad people. It’s totally not stupid to think this way at all. People who think this way are super smart.
