AYRT This has absolutely been my experience lol. Any time I express disagreement with a relative who brings up politics, it's not a discussion, it's just them waiting for me to be done talking so they can tell me how wrong I am. Over and over and over. And then they don't seem to have any clue why I don't interact with them as much as I used to, and why it's so surface level. I'd love to have real conversations, where we're actually both open minded and able to consider other points of view, but they don't want to and I'm so tired of trying.
