I would ask them one to one in a casual way first. Like, grab coffee and bring them one and just say “ugh, I’m done with politics. I need a break from the world. Hey, could we not discuss that stuff when we’re here? Just thinking about how divided everyone is ha been really distracting for me at work. Could you help me out by not bringing it up, I really appreciate you and know you get it.”
If she is talking specifically to you. Tell her that you have no interest of her political views. Otherwise you must let it be. She has the right to talk to anyone she wants about anything she wants.
choose the opposite side and her, tell me what it is, and I will tell you what to say , Liberals' raise taxes, money out of your pocket to pay for the pandemic NDP just suck all around Green party, pretty self explanatory Conservatives, just go to work, best choice available
Just stare at them with a look of disgust and confusion, any time they ask u about it just be like “😬 I just feel so sad for you” and that’s all u gotta say every time it will drive her mad lolol
Just be polite & honest. Tell her i am actually really & genuinely not interested in politics or your views. It bores me to death and I cannot bother. Its ok to hate politics lmao.
I know how you feel I have a house mate who won't shut up about covid being a hoax. I ended up cracking and telling him to shut up. I've had enough of hearing it. Sorry not much of help but feel better after.

all you can do is walk away those people never let it go. or go with South park reference and putta d*ck in their mouths...
My work threatened to suspend us if we bring up politics, lmao
I wish mine would do that
Yeah, after a few heated arguments, they made that rule
It’s their freedom of speech. As long as they aren’t harming anyone with what they’re saying there’s nothing much you can really do than ignore them
What about disrupting the work place?
I’m not sure, maybe.
Oh wow finally see what you look like you are very smart for 15

But her coworker got hire to get her job done and accomplished task at her job. She does not get paid to talk about politics.

That is for us an HR thing.
Politics, Religion etc is straight to HR for them to manage along with the persons line manager,
I really don't want to start an issue.
@Subarugirl agreed, we put it in originally because of Brexit.
Have a talk to her and her line manager.
It’s about making people realise you can’t just talk about certain topics that trigger or annoy others
Well her manager is the Office manger and they generally agree and will talk about it together. I am out numbered lol
@Subarugirl this is why we moved it to HR, as often it got too political.
Although one of the guys found having a discussion on I think it was animal sex worked.
They complained about the conversation and it was, you stop yours and we stop ours.

Probably her plan to get one of you to snap, so she can claim to be the victim.
Record her a few times, and take them to HR or senior management as a formal complaint.
Let her talk it’s her right to speak her mind and opinions.
But just because there’s words coming out of her mouth doesn’t mean I gotta listen to em.
Wow your coworker is way to much and annoying. I guess no one teach her the in public we don't speak about religion or politics.
How does she still have a job? Lmao
The best way to deal with these people is pretend they don’t exist and do your job…
I'll probably just occasionally, boredly acknowledged them.
"yep... uh huh... sure... orly?"
I just wanna get my job done
Take a tip from Woody.
https://www.youtube.com/embed/JCraOWE5jQQGo to HR and discuss it, how it makes you feel uncomfortable and if applicable, that they can come off as hostile
Easy, tell them u don't give a fuck because the government is corrupted regardless. So no matter what we're fucked in SO many ways
You have to ignore them. That's all you can do unless you report her as causing a hostile work environment.
If she’s a conservative I don’t blame her, the left is destroying this country and aren’t even hiding it anymore
