So here's the thing.

- Politics are really important actually

- Those disagreements will still be there

Your racist uncle (or, ok fine, your grating progressive auntie) will still hold those views tomorrow.

OTOH fighting will probably only make things worse.

Suggest instead meaningful, loving, gentle conversations that are permitted to range across many subjects, including politics.

This is the time of year when life presents you with opportunities to practice. They are precious :D
