I have a work colleague who attempts to discuss politics with me. More recently, they’ve been asking me to participate in protests. I always try to steer the conversation back to work, but they’re not getting the hint that I’m not interested. I’m not sure how to else handle this as it is someone I will need to see and work with on a regular basis. Any suggestions?
I’ll quote Nancy Reagan…. “Just say NO”
Also… I’ve always made it a rule to never discuss politics at work.
Tell them only mentally unstable people actually go out and waste their life going to events like that. It’s literally something to do for people who have no lives. Normal people know that it’s just an opportunity to give law enforcement fat overtime and accomplishes nothing except wasted life and energy. They will then get the message.
That would be the way to just inflame the situation, because now it becomes personal, the they might complain to management. All they need to know is that you are not interested and to not keep asking. Doesn’t even have to with what kind of protest, some people just prefer to not participate, and that is perfectly okay.
1) Ignore it and try to redirect the conversation.
2) Be polite but tell them to stop, you are not interested in discussing politics at work.
3) If the person will not stop and it becomes truly unwanted or harassing activity report it to your Human Resources or your direct supervisor. Keep notes of who, when, where and what was said.
Turn him onto Claycord Talk About Politics, we’ll fix ’em.
Not that the same thing has happened to me, I have had customers that once in a while will make a controversial statement and when I was selling insurance, where you have a more prolonged contact with a client, someone would try to rope me into a political discussion. I might comment if I agree, but I try to keep it neutral and steer the conversation in a different direction. If I disagree, I NEVER tell a customer or client I disagree, I change the subject if they don’t get the hint I firmly and politely let them know I don’t discuss politics when I’m working. I had a coworker that was constantly preaching religion to me, I told her the work place is not the place to discuss religion and I’m not interested. Most companies have rules about what is considered appropriate, if things get out of hand I would talk to a manager. If someone would repeatedly ask me to participate in an event that I was not interested in, I would say nothing personal, but really not interested in participating, please don’t ask me again.
Tell them firmly you are not interested in discussing politics at work.
If they persist, report to HR, or to manager/owner if no HR.

Everything that man said is factually true. Some may not like it, and downvote it, but it is still factually true, Uncertainty and constantly shifting policies are bad for companies, bad for economy.
When these leftist politicians first started beating on their chests about inclusivity, little did we know criminals were at the top of their list.
It’s sure obvious now.

I’m guessing it’s so it won’t be too hot for the Rioters! Let’s not forget the Summer of Love 2020 – BLM was a failure when temps reached over 100 degrees F.
they start to melt they cant afford all that lotion that they constantly need and they all get that cake -ee white look so they gosta quit.Its in the contract that they can leave at 100.degrees.They arent real protesters with any passion for(what are they protesting?)their cause.

The dems assassinated 2 of their own in Minnesota for voting yes on a republican bill.You guys sure are cool.And Tim Walz thinks this is just another normal day with his explanation.Hopefully he is next.
The democrats and their supporters are flipping out because the current government is actually addressing illegal immigration, crime, government waste, government corruption…
They need and rely on the Grampy Joe style government.

omg! All that money spent for the birthday parade but the bleachers were pretty empty. I would use money to help the people are affected by the nature disasters but y’all hate socialism.
Hmmm
maybe spend less money on illegal medical, housing, schooling etc care and we could have money to spend on disasters. Why is it California spends so much on ILLEGALS/CRIMINALS and then has to ask for help from the federal government to help
the people because the state mismanaged everything?
As for the military parade, it was awesome. It was a great way to celebrate the Army’s 250th birthday. You understand the freedom that you have right now is because of those who served? This parade has been in discussion for longer than Trump has been president BUT you probably don’t see that because of your TDS affliction.
And the No Kings protests … funny, don’t really see any mention of that in the news. If the ideas was to distract from the military parade, it failed. I have seen more in local, national and international news sources regarding the Army’s birthday celebration than I have about no kings …
They should have used the $ to build the wall and increase ICE hiring.
that is an insane approach for we have tried to build wall and beef up border enforcement with no different outcome; total waste of money.
Since Trump wants to buy Greenland and wants Canada to join the union. They reject his proposal. But what if we extend the proposals to Mexico, I think the Mexican would be interested for most of them are already here.
What the hell are you talking about? The wall was started and some incoherent guy with a habit of falling stopped the build. Greenland and Canada? Just Trump trolling the foaming at the mouth nutjobs like you.
Most of the Mexicans are already here? More ICE funding = more Mexicans in Mexico.
Paul, bad weather threatening all day probably kept a lot of locals from attending, but maybe you can tell us how many watched it on TV….. or would you rather not?
Or who cares?
Remember the Taliban parading around in the billions of dollars worth of US military vehicles Joe left in Afghanistan.
That was a pretty expensive parade we paid for too, want to talk about that?

Until the Nielsen comes out with a rating, we don’t really know that how many people watch the parade on television.
However, there were at least 5M people, including your truly, at the No King protests that happened throughout the US.
Anyway, I just watched the recording of the parade. When comparing to the parades of other nations, we had lack the spirit and that in itself a humiliation. We need more practice or at least have the LBGTQ help for they know how to throw a lit party.
We don’t order our civilians to attend military parades like some “other nations” do.
The way the lefties and your LBGTQs carry on in public I didn’t think it was possible for you to feel humiliation.
Excuse me miss,your slip is showing.
What we do know is those at the parade were happy upbeat and patriotic. Those at your protest are miserable, angry, brainwashed, lost souls.
Birthday parade is another Democrat leftist lie. U.S Army asked for permission in July of 2024 and was approved by the Biden administration. But don’t let facts get in the way of the endless B.S. you post here Paul.
What the Hell!!! On the Department of Defense website is a Flag Day celebration announcement with 2 RUSSIAN FLAGS on it. Yes, our Flag day commemoration is co-opted by the Russians. The right screams about Mexican flags at protest. Will they be half as upset at allying ourselves with the murderous genocidal Putin. Disgusting, Shameful and painfully un American.

Cry more,or change things,but stop complaining.
Here is a link that actually works to explain the flag fiasco (obviously an accidental design oversight that the lefties had to pounce on and pretend to misunderstand).

I’ve never seen a protest with Russian flags,anywhere,anytime.They don’t rudely shove their way into America.Let’s face it,the invaders not only cant follow rules and laws,but they are so rude in their ways and they are the worst neighbors you could ever have.They protest by being the biggest noise maker,hoping to turn out the entire street into illegal noise makers that dont dare snitch on each other.This is how ghettos are created.They force you out with rudeness,Concord has no noise ordinance or they would be the noise police all night.They don’t spend anytime time dealing with 2 am noisemakers.They don’t care.But if you say a word youre a racist.It’s an old plan that works well.

“So let’s connect the dots. The FBI had credible intel in 2020—substantiated by actual evidence from Customs and Border Protection—that the Chinese Communist Party was working to rig the election with fake IDs and mail-in ballots. The allegations pointed directly to a scheme designed to help Joe Biden. And what did the bureau do? They buried it. Recalled the report. Pretended it never existed.”
