It's sad when politics gets in the way of family time. It's probably best to set that aside and focus on the positives, and enjoy each other's company.

Actually I was joking about rubbing in the election, I avoid talking politics at family gatherings.
Just think it's a little odd that democrats are so pissed off about the election that they cut ties with family over it.

We were able to get together without discussing politics. Probably because
we few Republicans know not to bring it up, especially since at least one
of the hosts is a Democrat.

We all have that relative that can't stop talking about politics,
sometimes it's best to take yourself out of the equation for your own
good.

We were able as well, because no one in our family is enough of an
asshole to bring up contentious politics at a family holiday table.

Yeah. In 2020, the family Democrats knew not to be posteriors and rub that election in, too.

We really don't talk politics here either, but we did have a self rightous reletive tell us that we were going to hell for drinking a beer with dinner.
This was a Christmas party that my wife and I hosted at our house.
We don't really talk religion either.

internet sez
"Galatians 5:19-21: "The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: ... drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God." Ephesians 5:18: "Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery."


so you can drink but dont be a drunk.

There are so few of us left in my family we made an agreement not to discuss politics and just think and speak of the old days and it has worked out so much better. We also banned booze from the gatherings and I think that went a long way towards peace. LOL.
