The reason they got upset is because they changed the topic immediately instead of considering the point their friend was making.
People get frustrated with people buried in politics because every single conversation turns into politics. Their friend wanted to talk about nice holiday nonsense, and instead its a conversation about politics.
But neither of you know that. That’s just the most anecdotally likely. You’re doing the same thing as the presumably real friend is doing: discounting the reality OP is saying they’re experiencing (they don’t feel like celebrating currently because ofcurrent affairs) and replacing it with head in the sand “touch grass” disguised with the words it takes for you to feel like you’re correct.
Maybe that friend always has their head in the sand. Maybe that friend is maliciously giddy about the possibilities espoused by shit like Project 2025 and deflecting.
I, am hoping you can both understand I’m saying you look like hypocrites. No inference needed.

I mean I know that and you know that but I don’t know how to say that directly to them in the comments so I hoping they would infer that message.
