Or maybe you're what one of my clients likes to call me.
A contrarian. :)
Some of the people I work with/for have VERY different political
viewpoints than I do.
We discuss it here and there. Sometimes we agree on certain points,
many other times not.
However we've always understood that each is entitled to their own
opinion. There isn't
much more to it.
When an entire collective agrees on one thing and there is no
dissent, lord (or greater deity
of your choosing if any) have mercy on us all.
:)
Cheers,
Me

Regardless of your inferior opinions, I'll always be willing to sit down
and allow any of you to buy me a drink in order for me to elucidate you on
the errors of your ways. Life is too short. Your life, I mean, if you
don't change those opinions. Oh, it's your round. Yeah, bag of crisps
would be great. Salt and vinegar. I'll be on the bog...hey do you have any
stamps? I have to post something.
