Being a Liberal Democrat on Similar Worlds is like Preaching to the Choir.

I love being around the abundance of Trump Haters on Here.
I have to give Dad a heads up about this site.
I'm sure he can create some type of Federal Grant of free money
for SW liberals.

"Preaching to the choir" means talking to people who already agree with you. So, neither a conservative talking to conservatives nor a liberal talking to liberals is preaching to the choir.

Edit:

I put this wrong, although the first sentence is correct. Never mind.
@Mamapolo2016 Doesn’t it ? 🤔
@bijouxbroussard In real life, the choir rarely agrees with the preacher 😀, but in idioms, it is thought to.

"preach to the choir

To try to convince someone about something that they already support; to state one's opinion to those who are already most receptive to it.

You're preaching to the choir here—we all have kids and understand how busy life can get.

Honestly, you're preaching to the choir, but I just don't have any money to donate."

@bijouxbroussard It does; someone is a little confused it seems. 😄
@Mamapolo2016 Yes, I am familiar. But you also said
[quote] So, neither a conservative talking to conservatives nor a liberal talking to liberals is preaching to the choir.[/quote]
I was puzzled, because it seems like they [b]would[/b] be, based on the definition.
@bijouxbroussard You are right. I was thinking right but writing wrong. If you follow...I'm going to bed. 😂
