Politics Discussions Suck

I absolutely love my Parents... but they can't seem to stop bringing up politics... at times, even to the point of pissing each other off... it's so freaking annoying to visit them and find out they're fighting over something so stupid and something they can't control...

Well, i can say from experience that i know quite a few who are in politics but they refrain discussing that with family.

It's best if political views are kept outside of family because of conflicting viewpoints

Agreed. My dad and I constantly argued over them, at his insistence to bring them up, and greatly hindered our relationship in his final years.😒

I've blocked all political groups I could think of here. It's too tiresome to deal with anymore.

@Viper Bless your heart. I empathize greatly with you.🤗

I didn't understand the latter part of your comment though....

And your not trying to get your message out there to the public, whom they MIGHT be able to control it I'm theory with voting...

@MoonlightLullaby My dad keeps hammering his politics points with us... which we can't do anything about the politics.

If he actually wants something done, he should be going public and trying to get people to agree with him and vote the way he suggests, etc.

Of course, I'm thinking he might be in the minority of his own party even right now.

@Viper Ahah. I gotcha now. 😉

For me, voting is imperitive if one weeks to change anything. I wholeheartedly agree in putting grassroots efforts to work vs senseless arguments. Do something, ffs, is what he needs to do!

Bingo!!! Yet another reason why I loathe politics. When I see it on here I’m like STFU and some of these people don’t even work lol

I tried bringing sports to SW but it fell on deaf ears… that’s where Facebook comes in

I’m really, really lucky in that everyone in my immediate family is on the same side in that regard. When Donald Trump won in 2016, a couple of my friends who didn’t want to spend Thanksgiving with gloating conservative families had supper with mine.
