Honestly, MLs tend to do this with a lot of convos, I feel.
If you want to be absolutely practical about that, not forcing politics onto everything allows you to be a lot easier to live for everyone around you, which is actually good for the cause. A lot of lefty people are super annoying to be around because they do that. In my experience, no one is willing to change their minds about controversial topics to someone who is constantly bringing them. Oppositely a lot of people will accept the views of someone they see as laid back, fun, socially acceptable and intelligent.
it’s something you see a lot with atheists, especially those who have just broken free from a religion. getting into arguments with everyone all the time can deter people from what you’re desperately trying to say. it’s good to try… plant seeds and water them but you can’t just water them all day every day to try to force them to grow. you gotta keep a nice healthy pace.
