When someone you love/like is a Trump supporter
« on: June 19, 2017, 08:01:00 AM »
Oh my. There are not enough facepalms in the world. You shallow one minded ******. My lady is no way a Trump supporter, but she is anti-Hillary. She did not dump me just because on who I voted for. FFS, the replies  :thatsright:

When someone you love/like is a Trump supporter
What do you do? Or what did you do when you found out?

This has just happened to me. I like this person, but now I'm thinking I had them all wrong. Part of me says it shouldn't matter, but then the other part of me thinks it says a lot about what kind of person they are. I keep seeing Facebook posts supporting Trump, saying we should praise Trump, and I just go "Ewwwww.."

I could only imagine what would happen if I was married to someone like that.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Well, you could invest a little time and find out who/what they are.

Or you could just go with your stereotypes and prejudices, ASSume no decent human being could possibly disagree with your political ideas, and dump the guy/gal.

Good Progs don't check their stereotypes and prejudices, as that puts one's entire worldview at risk. So ASSume & DUmp.

Most worldviews are like glasses through which one perceives and interprets the world. "Progressivism" is more like an airtight diver's helmet.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

We popped open a couple of brewskis and made fun of obama, bernie, hitliary and liberals in general.
It was a jolly good time!! :cheersmate: :cheersmate: :cheersmate: :cheersmate:
Life is tough and it’s even tougher when you’re stupid

Basking in the glow of my white Privilege, while I water the Begonias with liberal tears!

I will give up my guns when the liberals give up their illegal aliens

We need a Bull Shit tax to make the Democrats go broke!

Sorry about that, probably a too obscure reference about the recently convicted teenager here in Massachusetts that told her then boyfriend to "get back in the truck and finish it" in reference to him having second thoughts about committing suicide.

One would hope that she dumps the philistine bounder, post-haste!

For HIS sake, not hers.

Thanksgiving and Christmas are no longer special occasions to talk about how they hate on family and friends. If they can't do it year around, they just aren't complete. Only 24/7/365/forever hate will do for liberals.

That is the great irony...HATE drives most posts (and posters) at DU.

That chicken has been tethered since 2001, and they wear it proudly.
