So where do you land?

This is the thing with politics nowadays and people too invested in it, you can rarely have a normal conversation, and if you are opposed in beliefs to someone, suddenly that relationship can change, it's happened to me over and over, as soon as someone finds out where I lean.
When I post on a left leaning place, it's upvotes galore and people being overly friendly as long as I tow the line. I really can't stand that shit, there's nothing honest about an echo chamber, it just becomes a place of mass delusion.  I'd rather be in a place where people dislike me and there's a few like me or who don't give a damn where I sit.

I am much like you at the end there, I'm not gonna fight you over your beliefs, they're yours and mine are mine, but I'm still interested in you,  lets have some fun instead.

I had to look up what Rummikub was

I can disagree with you without disliking you. I've built an entire life on that ability!

I'm the same, many many people aren't though unfortunately!
