I hate talking about politics?

I REALLY hate talking about politics with people too personal into them. My friend was talking to me about politics and asked who would I vote for. I said I don't really like anybody this year, and everyone has some bad baggage. He is a Bernie Sanders Advocate and when I mentioned that I didn't agree with his tax plan he started "yelling" at me. I wanted to stop talking about it then and there because he was making a scene. Then he started saying **** like your dad probably doesn't make 25 grand a year, (he makes 110k) it's not going to affect you yada yada yada... I personally just felt embarrassed and tried to lighten down. Hes a pretty cool dude just way into poltics(his dad used to be a poltication). I dunno what his problem was. IDK, I now know to never talk about poltics with him again LOL. I hope people forget about this.

    Your friend sounds like about 3/4 of the people on YA Politics. Tell him that your father's specific income is not relevant in a discussion about the macroeconomic impact of a massive tax increase such as the one proposed by Bernie Sanders (or Hillary Clinton).

  • Liberals are like that. Look at what they do when they go to republican rallies. They will not let you go in peace if you disagree with them. Kind of reminds me of when I was in Russia during the communist rule there. People pleaded with me to be careful what I say. Liberals would love to hang people who disagree with their politics. This is why I do not vote democrat.

    "...(his dad used to be a poltication)."

    Poltication?

    Anyway, if you really don't like talking about politics, here's a story:

    A guy went to the doc and said his arm had been hurting. The doc says, "When you hold your arm in this position, does it hurt?"

    The guy did it and said, "OW!!! Yes, it hurts!!'

    Doctor says, "Well, don't do that."
