"Is It Time to Stop Snubbing Your Right-Wing Family?" Unintentionally hilarious NYT op-ed.

I love when abby-normals suddenly discover something that normals have known their entire lives and attempt to lecture us on this thing we already knew. "You see, we can actually get along with people who don't think like we do! You didn't know that, did you? Well, I went ahead after years of being an asshole to my brother-in-law and started surfing with him and, blazes, we can actually get along like adults, without me holding it against him that he's a Trump voter, a Joe Rogan listener, and maybe worse, an electrician! Amazing!"

Bizarre people, but then, you already knew that from being here and observing our own TDS patients.

Well, we can certainly count on you to not snub those on the left. You’re so good at it.

…and he advises others to seek out common ground wherever they can find it…instead of constantly being confrontational.

Read it again…you just might learn something.

Since you need the explanation, MAS was chuckling over the fact that an adult needed an "A-Ha!" moment to arrive at such a crazy epiphany, when normal, rational adults had this conclusion at a normal stage of human development.

as an example for others to follow and make their own lives more open and productive especially with others who have deep political differences...yet MAS...and you...choose to ridicule him for it. Wish I could help you, but that prospect is drifting further and further away.

If the Giggler won, the snub would still be in place. The left looks to be offended everywhere 24/7.

Restaurants, bakeries, mom and pop stores, sport team names, locker rooms, sporting events, universities, Alligator Alcatraz. LOL.. Always searching for the next big grievous offense. The Dem left actually think that conservatives miss these jerkoffs when they give MAGA the silent treatment.
