Walk away, because the conversation would be boring as fuck.
By the time, everyone had made it known that they're politically minded, I'd have left before the Nazi had even spoken up, tbh. Nobody that thinks of themselves as politically minded can ever have a normal conversation. They just keep looking for ways to bring politics up, and derail anything else
So, I don't waste time any more.
Um, What about political activist groups?
I was once roped into attending a few political activist group board meetings, followed by dinner with a few members. I gotta tell you, each and every weekly meeting made me feel like I was slowly drowning (although perhaps too slowly).
