Exactly, especially when it comes to family, it can be more beneficial to just make people feel heard and accepted than it is to be right on something. That's one of those spaces that should protected, but I've already seen too much of people distancing from family just because of a disagreement.

Additionally, I think public spaces where we set aside things like political differences can help us maintain societal cohesion. This isn't a "let's just all get along" kind of thing, since we still need to discuss these issues... it's more of a "let's not drag argumentation into every sphere of life" kind of thing.
