I think I was a pretty radical leftist because I lost almost all of my friends once I simply stopped thinking conservatives were literally Satan's cross-bred Hitler clone.

Messaged the friend that posted the video and we laughed about the incident

I was sitting on the back porch with my mom and I heard a very familiar nasally voice. She was watching a Shapiro video and I could have died happy.

@Piggles I know that's all I was doing was engaging their public posts on certain topics too it's legitimately pretty fucking sad.

I wonder sometimes if any of them will come around. It's funny to think they probably think way more negatively of me than I do of them and I haven't even done anything to them.

@Roneci I think we're all there at least a little bit. My aunt is LGBTQ and I usually just don't engage with her on FB politically but we blew up at each other over Kavanaugh. It's not the same since then.

unfortunately you have to be prepared to cut ties with close people or never have an opinion

yeah, I've learned that lesson in a pretty rough manner @Savage -- minor caveat: I never lost conservative friends even at my most radical lefty-est

@Roneci yeah conservatives tend to care more about who you are rather than what you think

Aint that the truth.

I had 6 bridesmaids. 5 were friends and 1 was my sister. Out of those 5, 2 will talk to me. My own. Maid of honor won’t speak to me.

@Savage I think most conservatives just appreciate it when someone CAN and DOES think

oh and hey everyone I dunno why I was so hesitant to ever come in here it's nice to chat I'm realizing I've been starved for it.

been all cloistered for a while.

@Piggles conservatives allow people to believe what they want, even if they believe it's wrong. Leftists wont allow wrong opinions

@Roneci My first time in a discord room or a live show like this

It's pretty awesome

but yeah, it's totally an appreciation of thought and different ideas too

@Roneci same. I work for a fairly left company and i fear my job security if I voice my center-right political options.

@Savage You're absolutely right. That's because Leftism is clearly a new orthodoxy. A "meta-religion"?

yeah, it's pretty much a non-theistic or meta-religion at this point

@2krispy4u when I was being hired for my current job, the person doing the hiring said to me with little to no prompt: "We really don't like Donald Trump here, in case you were wondering." and I only managed to say "I wasn't... but okay."

smoooth

The non-binary vagina is the idol

leftists treat their ideology like christians in the dark times. it's blasphemy to think differently

front hole****

@Savage hence the witchhunting and public burning

they're book burners with technology

@Savage front hole sounds so gross

@Savage most Leftists would claim the same about anyone who denies the need for radical climate change legislation; that the deniers are the ones burning books

@2krispy4u lol its disgusting, but vagina upholds the social construct of biological sex so shut up and say front hole you bigot 😛

lol

@Savage you’re right. Men can get pregnant and bleed too.

well they can definitely bleed

@Piggles yeah but they fundamentally don't understand the conservative stance on climate change lol

@2krispy4u make sure to call that person "zhe"

if i'm bleeding from my front hole. call a doctor

this isnt something a tampon will fix lol

@Savage It's worse than not understanding. They refuse to listen to it in the first place!

I think any trans person who has anything bad to say about Rachel Dolezal is a hypocrite.

yeah they just stick to their talking points that have been debunked for years
