It can possibly rub a lot of people the wrong way, statistically speaking. How can anyone discuss politics civilly? Myself, I can see why people say you have to say something about politics to avoid cowardice, but is that really cowardice?

I totally agree. It's just a waste of time. Also, as you said, it can wreck havoc.Politics is one of two of the most controversial and hard conversations to have without going south, unless you converse with people who believe in the same things you do and then it becomes a echo chamber. It's hard to change a person's world view if they were taught to view the world a certain way. Most of society sees the world as black and white to begin with, and the moment you start to notice the world is more grey and you try to convince others who don't see it that way it can lead to some heated conversations.
Or, even worse, they want to confuse/assert opinions with/as facts.That's not so easy though when people run out of facts.
