I've got three incredibly close and good friends. They aren't perfect people, ranging from typical American lib, to centrist/conservative. We generally stay away from hot button topics, because we just don't agree on stuff.
(ie : an argument that i made suggesting cops don't belong in kids showa/movies, and they were all cool with it because "what's the harm in showing kids what police should be)
I linked to a meme on Twitter just today, and the user had a hammer & sickle, after laughing one friend said" wow, hammer and sickle big yikes". They don't have any idea about where I lay politically, and frankly it's been a pretty radical shift left in the last 10 months.
Anyone else have a situation like this? And how do you approach things?
I only have three close friends. One's an abolish-the-police socialist, another one is a socdem/demsoc, and the other is apolitical. Only found these out after being friends with them for years, so I guess it worked out pretty well. Once (if) I make more friends this could be an issue though :/
