There was a WW2 bomber flyover today 'to honour the veterans' and my immediate reaction was 'if I had fought in WW2 I wouldn't want to be reminded of that shit' which rapidly turned into both of them attacking me for not respecting veterans. They both would say they're socialists.

      Absolutely. I'm not sure I handled it as best as I could. Oddly enough, I think this was the first time I experienced the 'fight' side of 'fight of flight' reaction- I didn't acquiesce just because they expected me to and it ended the conversation pretty quickly.
