Charles M. Schulz famously said: “There are three things I have learned never to discuss with people . . . Religion, Politics, and The Great Pumpkin.” And perhaps now, more than ever, he’s right!
Talking politics is darn risky right now. In fact, a study revealed that one in three Americans has been called names or chastised for openly voicing opinions.
And that’s especially true in the workplace. Or around the family dinner table, for that matter. Or in the supermarket.
Wear Your Sad Flag Pin With Pride
Thankfully, there is a solution, and that’s the Sad Flag Pin. No bigger than a quarter, you can wear your Sad Flag Pin with pride – and it may even spark a great conversation.
Let’s face it, the wearing of an American flag pin of any description has been a major source of debate of late. Who’s wearing one, who isn’t? Who’s wearing one upside down?
The upside of all this is that debate is healthy. And it should be carried out in a civilized fashion.
We’ve been hearing stories that are just plain embarrassing, like co-workers refusing to sit next to one another because one voted for Trump.
Here Are The Rules
Instead of behaving like toddlers, just get it out there and have a conversation. But there are some rules.
#1Wear your Sad Flag Pin, as a gesture of goodwill.
#2 Don’t judge other people. We are all entitled to our point of view and, just because it isn’t the same as yours, doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Keep an open mind and find common ground.
