how do I stop giving a f*ck about my coworkers political ideas? (lemmy.ml)

I don't talk about politics or religion at the workplace, yet there is a drama queen that loves just blurting out what she thinks to everyone around.

My way to go so far has been to ignore her, but sometimes I just want to yell at her how incoherent she is.

Then I'd be the one starting drama I guess...

I'm looking for advice to deal with these kind of people. I don't want to work listening to conspiracy theories.

I work 100% remote, which has made it very easy for me to ignore my coworkers' bad politics takes because they're confined to a specific Slack channel

Would it be good enough for you if you heard the conspiracy theories around you, but you could mostly not be affected by what they're saying?

You aren't supposed to agree with everyone around you all the time.

Grow up or hate the world you share with the rest of the people living on it.

That's the risk of places like lemmygrad and hexbear.

Best of luck moving forward
