This question’s on my mind because my coworker today mentioned they would vote for Trump if they could (mind you this is 2023, in Canada). I don’t generally have the talking points or the desire to fight about it, so I just deflected the conversation. But I often wish I was more strong-willed and could try to figure out why someone believes what they do and, if it’s invalid, then convince them otherwise.

Thus, I’m curious what you all would say or what you’ve done in the past!

    There’s a good reason that civilised people never discuss politics or religion

      I feel that avoiding confrontation and letting trash views flourish has led to major problems in our societies.

        And I feel the opposite, so that’s the end of that conversation.

        Oo I like your shoes, are they new?

      Do you have friends or do you just have conversation partners

      I don’t understand how you can have relationships if you don’t ever discuss your world view.
