[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reason Vienna is “polite” is because there has been a diverse range of views here for many years.

You have the OGs that moved in in the 70s. They’re definitely conservative. Then there’s the wave of folks who now have adult kids, another wave of families that have high school or college kids now, and then another wave of families with young kids more recently.

The political spectrum is broad but (at least in TOV) we are also a town that values community. So getting along with the neighbors goes hand in hand with that. We aren’t besties. But we do look out for each other regardless of whether or not we agree on hot button topics.

I don’t understand why the OP feels the need to discuss hot button issues with neighbors. To ‘rock the boat’ with your neighbors. They’re not your friend group, not your close circle, not your family. I feel like there’s some sort of social cues missing for the OP. [/quote]

The defense of utter blandness isn’t surprising at all.  It’s what Vienna does best. [/quote]

Good thing there are plenty of other options for you out there. Head back to DC or to where DCUM thinks the holy land of progressive thought is in Takoma Park. It’s a big world out there, instead of putting a place down for not being edgy enough for you, find your slice of heaven on earth.

Your blandness is my place of peace. Isn’t it great that we don’t have to all think in lockstep?
