    To me there’s a difference between “politics” and taking about a specific topic and concern.

    unfortunatly most people that I know that want to “talk politics” always have an agenda and motive. These individuals are never concerned about learning and broadening the topic but “winning” and their agenda.

    Edit: F any trumper out there too.

      This is why my reaction to these people irl is always, “I don’t like talking about politics.” Which, a quick look at my comment history would tell anyone, is absolutely ridiculous lol.

      You can usually tell which people are actually interested in discussion, and which have an (usually right wing) agenda to push.

      I mean, I do have an agenda, that’s kinda the point. My agenda is to make life better (= more equal, more inclusive, etc) for everyone
