Race has no scientific basis. It is a purely social construction from the Victorian era.

There's three minutes between the posts. It's just a joke.

I'm you are talking about politics wrong.... Somehow.

That CAN be what politics discussions are about but that's very echo chamber, negative circle jerk types stuff.

One thing that helps to have more interesting conversations is think on different scales. How are neighborhood politics different from national politics? Not all national issues show up in every community.

How I see things, politicians, of all kinds, are supposed to exist to solve the common problems that enough people face but cannot solve by themselves or their group.

Local politicians can better serve local issues, so start talking about smaller politics when you are crashed into those types of conversations.

Small thing everywhere are more important to most people than large things nowhere. And you can at least get other people to stop talking about the danger dumb shit you address probably suck of hearing about.

It does take a bit of effort to get started but once you do it a few times it's pretty effective (in my experience)

Also if you can tie food into the issue you bring up most people have opinions on food
