I worked in a department of an investment bank where I was the only conservative out of 40 people, besides one of the 2 bosses, thank God.
That was 20 years ago and oddly enough we’d have FIERCE debates while working and then go out for drinks like they never happened.
I considered some of them friends.
But 20 years ago may well have been a million in terms of the evolution of liberalism.
When I got quite ill, many of them gave me generous financial gifts.
Today, they would send me hate cards.
And NO, I cannot explain how pro abortion people treated me with such kindness.
I have no answers.
They knew my stance.
I think for many, it wasn’t one of their top priorities...which doesn’t make it any less horrible.
who knows how human minds work?
Well, when you get to know people as people, like in work situations, instead of a someone to argue with or persuade to this or that point it makes a difference.
People are actually, as the saying goes, pretty much alike - having the same objectives for the lives. When you relate on that level instead of your individual political leanings, people are gonna more or less get along.
But, at any rate, unless a person works at for a political party, they should keep their politicking to themselves. That’s what I figure, anyway.
