These people are a boil on the ass of humanity. Their entire world revolves around the political leanings of friends and families. My mother was a Democrat and a moonbatty one at that, my nana's a Roosevelt dem, one of my sisters (who's also my best friend) is an evangelical and conservative, don't have a clue what my brother thinks, my stepsister I'm pretty sure is liberal but her husband is a retired Marine and he's conservative, my stepbrother is gay and lives in SF, my half sister dropped out of HS and has no real job skills but wouldn't matter if she did because she was in a car accident before her daughter was born and suffered head trauma that prevents her from working...while she lives on disability she's raising a lovely, smart, responsible daughter. My BIL is a moonbat's moonbat (I'm still working on finding out his DU name). My inlaws are conservative. One of my sons in very conservative and the other spends too much time on the internet reading conspiracy theories and how evil food additives are. We're big, loud, and fun. A few I talk politics with a few but most I don't. My sister and I talk mostly about politics as it relates to homeschooling and children since we've both been there. We all have a history together that transcends politics and petty bullshit. These people have miserable lives and it shows.
