I really like this. I had a pretty good experience wrt: my family because we all realized what was happening, moved to another room and shut the door on the offending parties when they started talking about that stuff. It fizzled out in about 15 minutes. It’s easier to get people to embrace “normalcy” than it is to get them to embrace anything else, and it’s easier to ostracise the people talking about Hamas or unfair advantages in women’s sports than it is to raise conciousness. People getting into it at the holidays are absolutely abnormal (reminder, it’s a fucking get-together) and should be treated as such.
