I used to elicit my political beliefs, but then I realized, it's like religion. Who am I to tell someone that doesn't want to talk politics with me they are wrong in their beliefs?
I may say something in other threads or in real life outside of discussing politics that in my mind is a joke or lets out my disappointment that leaves no doubt as to my beliefs..... however, besides here, paranoia, maybe in some religion threads and my writings in the Lit.... I try very hard not to espouse political opinion that would offend anyone.
I have learned in my job that doing so, can turn a client off to my helping them, in familial and friend relations it can hurt the bonds and in life in general, noone will share exact beliefs with me nor I with them and that being the case, it is best to sometimes just leave it alone.
I have some very political friends and family, what we have learned is not to truly go into depth, if something slips to let it go and move on ignoring the offensive foul as though it was just not said.

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
