"I never unfriend people over politics"

This probably works for dating, too.

1. Nice. That addresses the conundrum of politics having long-ago

merged with core principles. I don't want to associate with anyone who believes we fought on the wrong side in the Second World War, or that we should have been allied with Hitler's Germany. And that's just for starters...

2. It sure seems more like MAGAs unfriended me...

12. That happened to me.

I just don't want to be with people who don't like me.

8. I do.. and have.

And I don't regret it.

9. I do, and have, and will continue to do so.

And I sure as hell don't regret it.

10. I've never unfriended over "politics." I *have* done so over the absence of ethics,

honesty, emotional maturity, integrity -- and general intelligence.

For example, I've unfriended people who excitedly posted that they could finally say "Merry Christmas" again when Trump was first elected, or posting nonsense about Michelle Obama being a man, or that idiotic narrative from the Presidential debate about Kamala Harris wearing an earpiece disguised as an earring, or that guardian angels protected DT from an assassin's bullet back in July of 2024, etc...

I cannot with these people - I don't give a f*ck who they are, or even if we're related.

11. People who say "We can still be friends" are always clueless and privileged.

Someone who wants to kill minorities or create conditions that subjugate minorities to being second class citizens cannot be friends with the people they’re trying to hurt. That’s not a real friend.
