Examples that come to mind:

  • saying your favorite video game is Disco Elysium
  • saying your favorite TV show is Star Trek DS9

The two rules are that:

  1. It has to be to do with a category that is socially acceptable to talk about with most people in a casual setting. So no politics or philosophy.
  2. Nothing too on the nose, ex, no "I love the music of the Red Army Choir" or something.

    I usually don’t say anything either, but then someone would recommend or offer me a job with the MIC or the surveillance state, and I turn them down and they ask me why.

    Other times someone would recommend me video game companies and I also refuse and talk about crunch, frat bro culture, and people stealing breast milk.

    Usually they figure it out by then
