speechless. I am copying and pasting some of them below.
Yeah. I found that out in 2020.
I deleted every friend/ acquaintance I had. In this red state, they were all MAGAT. It was totally liberating!
I do feel a bit sad about only 1 of them of which I knew for 40 years. I do miss the person she used to be.
However I am better off without those toxic people.
No more soap operas for me 😊
I have a friend we met 50yrs ago. I learned so much from this guy about bike repair and bike racing. And he just told me on FB that i need to stop posting anti Trump/Maga stuff. He said that I needed to stop because I was being a fool...I replied that fool voted for Trump...
I have given up on life long 'friends' who are pro Putin, pro Trump anti vaxxers....I have not missed one second of this new paradigm...having suffered through many years of their conspiracy theories, I am only saddened by the fact that I WASTED all that time with these people.....
I’ve lost 7 people who were once very dear to me because of MAGA. One, Mark S. became my BEST friend in 1965. I guess I never REALLY knew him at all.
It's only my entire nuclear family though 😪
.....Yea, that is the saddest part. Sorry for your loss, because that is exactly how it feels. Put your energy and love to good use now...RESIST.
.....Mine too.

I think it was Eric Weinstein that stated there are two types of TDS - derangement and devotion. I don't understand either of them.
What has happened to me numerous times.
be a friend with a nazi? Using this nazi/Hitler is so convenient to attack your opponents. They're nazi, no need to reason, to argue, to negotiate with them.
These TDS people are victims of rhetoric of smear campaign against MAGA. They removed friends of their life for no good reason but a political lie.
And for the record, I have some very close friends that voted for the orange dud. Guess what? Our friendship(s) haven’t suffered one iota. You’re dumb as fuck.
There are myriad psychos who have been brainwashed by leftist "media" who have publicly tantrummed out relationships over their friends being "nazis."

They were never more than a conditional friend if that's the case. I have many close friends and family members who dislike Trump or feel that the current iteration of the left is the better voting alternative. I don't agree with them, but I also wouldn't excommunicate them over it.
reason. Ending friendships because of politics is dumb.
You may not believe this, but most of my friends are Democrats. At least 2/3. Those Democrats have never told me they are shut out by family members voting opposite them. But, they do sometimes talk about stopping friendships from the Right. I am always very careful with what I say in their presence on political issues, and try to avoid such discussions altogether, because I enjoy their friendships.
My right leaning friends...when they are assured it is safe to talk (e.g., no Harris voters are present) all talk about how they had Democrat friends and family members who will no longer talk to them. But, but they are always willing to be friends with anyone. Free discourse and hard discussion of ideas is not a problem for them. But the Democrats are emotional about it, not intellectual about it, which is what causes this behavior. I can usually tell who the right leaning friends are, because they often remain silent when politics come up, lest they ruin a good night.
Just the way it is.
I don’t have that problem.
And here we have two anti-Trumpers posting under my post, backing up my point, without even realizing it. It only goes one way, they say.

You are much more likely to get spittle-flying shouts from Lefty's. Two thirds of them are unhinged.
You get a smirk from most on the right.
I generally keep my political positions to myself for professional reasons. I only ridicule Trumpers on this board.
Destroying or defacing someone’s property because of politics is insanely dumb. I don’t subscribe to that shit nor do the people that I associate with.
I hope most of us aren't like this in real life, lol.
