I don't know if I've experienced the same exact thing you're talking about, but I've definitely brought up something in a light-hearted way, like "isn't this funny" or "can you believe this thing" and had people respond with "no it's not funny, I take this very seriously." So maybe that's just me being bad at reading the room. For example, the other day I learned that in some states you don't need a teaching license or college degree to teach at a private school, and brought that up to my coworker. He got kinda defensive because apparently his wife used to teach at a private religious school, and didn't have a teaching license.
One thing I've noticed while talking with liberals especially is that they'll say "I just can't understand what [conservatives, Putin, Hamas, whoever they don't like] are thinking" and expect me to agree with them that that person is ontologically evil and can't be understood by normal good people. But then I start bringing nuance and history into the picture, like "well if you remember what happened with NATO in the '90s..." which is not what they wanted to hear, and they think I'm agreeing with the person they hate.
I also sometimes don't notice that the conversation has moved on, and tend to bring up something that everyone else had finished talking about 10 minutes ago, but it had been percolating in my brain since then.
If I count temp jobs as one job, and likewise with the various campus jobs I had during college, I've got 15. I'm probably forgetting a few. IIRC I once filed 4 W2s in one year, and the longest I've worked at one place was a little over 9 years.
My question is, when are we going to spend some of this daylight that we have saved up?
They're afraid of change and can't imagine a better world

Yeah any huge purchase like that feels like you're getting scammed, because you are. A small army of middle men all get to take their cut of something that should be a human right.

Just you wait until some wacko invents homeopathic genetics to refute this. The blood has memory!
I think he means volunteering to knock on doors for Harris
There's also a good interview with her on the podcast I Was There Too: https://www.earwolf.com/episode/iwtt-classic-aliens-t2-titanic-with-jenette-goldstein-2/
