I Avoid Political Discussions

At all costs lol! I’ve seen how politics can pull friends apart and I refuse to take part in that! I do my civic duty and vote for who I feel is right but when it comes to just adding to discussions on politics I find it best to just leave it alone!

@Michellekidwell I found these friends that we have politics in common and they are very good people.

@Hannihar I have many with the same affiliations as I politically but a few who aren’t! I have a lot of writing connections on Facebook!

I have friends with a wide variety of views and generally they respect the fact I want to leave it alone, but there have been times when all someone wanted was to argue!

I must avoid discussions about politics, especially when the situation is heating up.

Yes, politics and religion. Best to just let it lie.

I certainly share my Faith with others but try not to beat them over the head with it!

Vote is our right. But talking about politics, not interested. I also like to change the topic or leave it alone. Same pinch my friend.

I don't mind discussing politics. I just hate when people get nasty or attack me personally because I don't agree with them.
