I totally agree with you. Political opinions are formed over a long time, and are a function of our experiences, prejudices, reading, ignorance etc...all very hard to change.<p>So its best to not have political discussions in a work place setting. These kind of provisions invariably just end up causing a lot of heart burn, and nothing more.<p>PS: I personally liked Zuckerberg&#x27;s gesture as I know why it is important to have specific&#x2F;loaded statements which hint at history, than motherhood&#x2F;generic statements, which mean nothing, and often are the refuge of bigots. But at the same time, I have seen nobody (or very few) change their positions in arguments, and are just the cause of heart burns. God, how many people I unfriended on FB (when I was using it) just cause they hurt me real bad (in some cases, I regretted later on...that&#x27;s why Facebook is a net negative IMHO, but I digress, Sorry).
