I have some D&D sessions with some coworkers who are fairly progressive but still basically libs.
The rest as far as I can tell are middle aged pearl clutching neolibs or conservatives. Our manager, whom everyone despises, was trying to get people to open up about the BLM protests that were exploding in our small county a few months back as an attempt to out potential supporters.
And one of the VPs sent a company wide email about my specific branch saying if protests got too close to close the doors and call the cops. I almost literally face palmed at the irony.
The town I am is conservative and unincorporated. The protesters were maybe like 25 college aged people with the only black people in town.
I deal by coming home to a pup and loving partner and absorbing myself in my hobbies and theory. Having mutual aid outlets help too cause those ppl are usually comrades.
I honestly thought it was great, and somewhat responsible, of the writers of Bojack to put a whole season in where Bojack is playing a character (Philbert) – who is essentially himself – and at the end Diane calls him out for perpetuating an asshole stereotype that he shouldn’t be apologizing for/emphasizing with.
