I run into this with the concept of immigration more than everything else. I generally go to “I don’t think it’s necessary to be an asshole to people who are driven out of their country by starvation and murder.” Then I have to listen to shit about cultural infection. Like 'murica isn’t patient zero for every aspect of culture in world culture today.
Then I do my spiel about agribiz, mining, oil services cartels, patents, and how that is what destroys countries to the point of driving migration. When I finish, the subject turns to movies or car customizing.
