When family political differences create distance

Our family group chat used to be funny and warm but ever since the election our different politics keep bleeding through and now we all just share pictures and avoid anything real. I miss actually talking to these people I love but I don't know how to bridge what feels unbridgeable.

More people experience this than they realize.
