I love my political views and so should you!

man-yelling-2We all know one of these fantastic individuals who feel the need to convert the world to their one sided thinking on politics. Their infinite wisdom needs to be spread to each and every individual because then…just maybe…we will one day become a political genius just like this guy who has no absolutely zero political experience. But…as he will tell you…political experience is not needed, just a huge amount of overly important knowledge from his favorite website! Of course! That perfectly unbiased piece of literary perfection. I should have known! That is the one and only place to find the truth. Everyone else is just lying and misleading in order to cover the search of what is right in the world.

Normal conversation with this small minded individual is impossible. Every conversation is a vicious battle to the death that has a clear winner and loser. This supreme human being has never lost a fight in his mind. Casual dinner conversation or water cooler antics are nothing but blank pallets ready for debate. You often find yourself avoiding places and situations that are prone to his political thrashings. Didn’t you know that you can’t possibly have a functioning brain cell if you do not agree with his extreme views? There is no other way anyone could possibly think!

Where is this genius at his worst? Online forums and causal dinner parties. Yes…these harmless sources of mindless small talk are Mr. Right’s favorite avenues of mind puking. Want to have a simple conversation about the game last week, what you are going to do this weekend or the weather? It just isn’t possible…he has you in his sights and he is going to remind you why he is smarter than you. There is no causal conversation to this perfect political mind. It just doesn’t exist.

I have typically found that these complete assets to society typically lean to the extreme right or left with zero middle ground. The SAY they want to debate on issues, but in reality…they just want to spout off their favorite slant without any backlash. Have you decided that you are not going to engage in battle anymore? Have you just had enough? So what do you do? You stop participating in the fight to the death. By doing so…you have admitted defeat in the eyes of the most brilliant political mind on the planet.

So what does this future politician do? NOTHINGABSOLUTELY NOTHING but TALK! Maybe they should be a politician…

    So here’s the real point:
    Every conversation has a winner and a loser.
    They’ve never lost a debate in their own mind.

    The only solution – unless you want to spar just for kicks and don’t leave pissed off – is to let them stew on their own. The ONLY way to “win” is not to justify their waste of hot air by getting into the debate to begin with.
    Deep down this is just another flavor of bully who is only happy when they’re making someone else unhappy. Turn the tables and tune them out.
    It jan be fun to turn two polar opposites against each other though just to watch the fireworks though.

    And the answer is yes – I get to spend time with them at family get togethers.
