I've had political conversations with friends and relatives who disagree with me. Sometimes with better results than others. Talking to one sister about minimum wage (in an online conversation on Facebook that some of her friends joined in, it started as a comment to her posting something supporting much higher minimum wages) led to an interesting conversation, and to people respectfully listening to my points, even agreeing with some of them, or thinking they have learned something from the conversation.

Talking with one of my brother in laws about unions, even after I tried to limit it to public sector unions, didn't go so well.
