Anyone else avoid getting into political discussions and debates because everyone always makes you feel really stupid and ashamed about your opinions? It's kind of alienating for me.
Nobody's views ever even change in the end, it's fucking pointless.

nah i avoid political debates bc i usually win, i also have a clever reply. they get boring for me.
Why don't you educate yourself and make them feel stupid? It's people who put down others instead of making a good point that are usually wrong.

I'll grant my opinions and views when people ask me. But people never do, so I never express them. politics is truly pointless if you are not actively engaged in office or preparing to vote.

This. Christ I hate being so interested in it but I am not the kind of person that can run for any office.

protip: nobody cares what anyone elses political opinions are in those discussions, they just want to pontificate about their own views and will ignore any potentially good points you make anyway. even if someone listens to you, they will never admit when you are right and they are wrong and will instead insult you instead of conceding the point. everyone has already drawn their line in the sand, you will never change anyone's mind ever. rendering political discussions online, and even offline completely pointless.

politics are hilarious once you learn to flaseflag and LARP as the opposition
