      I see your point, but when I have to work side by side with someone for several hours, I prefer that they not be seething at me lol

        I mean, it’s risky, but if you do it right maybe you could trigger her enough to blow up and get fired without getting in trouble yourself? Fascist fucks deserve that, too.

      Lol yeah keyword there is coworker though.

      There are fantastic ways to politely and without any blame making people feel stupid enough to shut up, or make them backpedal and change the subject. Knowing your audience helps too, who else is there and what their politics are. I don’t think that comes naturally to anyone really though. Not most.

      It’s true. If they’re so easily manipulated, they’ll follow suit with the masses if enough of the other side are there and loud enough.

      Though, I also blame that tactic for how divided the US seems to be in general.
