I've just about had it with my coworkers. I have never once brought up politics where I work (warehouse, all dudes) but somehow during the election someone must have seen one of my many MAGA posts on social media. This past week I have been berated daily: called a racist, ridiculed, asked if I want to shoot up the workplace, called a proud boy, etc. Even one of my shift leads is in on it. He can't even ask me a simple question without saying some dumb shit like yadda yadda I know you voted for Trump... Guys I have NEVER ONCE been this outwardly vehement toward someone just because they support Harris/Biden. I never even bring up politics at work!!! And now I'm a fucking racist??? Getting bullied like this simply because I voted Trump???
Oh hell no, I do not appreciate the mindsets of these people. They have been infected with their own virtue. What were once friends are now enemies. They want to draw these battle lines, when I have shown them nothing but patience and cooperation? Eat shit, commies!!!
Wear your MAGA hat in to work tomorrow and just smile at them all.
I'm gonna really have to channel my inner Kyle Rittenhouse next week lol
Summon your inner Nick Sandmann :)
Don't let them run you off - just ignore and move the conversation along. Highly doubt they care about politics in 3 months when election hype isn't being funneled in their mouths from the MSM.
thank you. I try to tell myself exactly what you said. I know they are victims of propaganda. But to an extent that doesn't justify their actions. I've blocked all of them on social media. For now I will double down on those I trust
If your a good debater then have a national conversation. Here in Colorado i go for the jugular and use alinsky esque tactics. Like call them a racist and bring up critical race theory. Im pretty viscious but calm when I argue with leftist, just keep calling them what they call you. Call you sexist? Ask how they support human trafficking through the south. Want to shoot up the place? Dont you wish you had a concealed carry just in case. Remember most of them are useful idiots.
tbh it's all mostly pointless banter, we're not exactly geniuses here lol we're just doing manual labor all day. but I'll try and work on my comebacks for sure! I'm near seattle so yeah definitely behind enemy lines like you!
I totally would lol but uniform policy
Kill em with kindness..
Or if u wanna try to talk it out, hell, go along with it.. with me being in the construction business, u have to think of something quick to get them right back... Don't take anything to heart.. fuck everyone else. They're not living your life that u have one chance at
you know what's up then. Oh believe me, I've learned to play along with A LOT of shit over the years. I also know that you do NOT want to be the guy that goes and tells HR... lol
Buy everyone there a Trump 2020 MAGA cake. If they smash it, leave a note that said "I Bought all you guys cake, but you guys vandalized it. Who's the real bad guy here?"
tbh that's not a bad idea lol
Sue them for $25 million.
Human rights, and all that.
I would turn down way more than 25m just for the sweet, sweet retribution of seeing them reeeeee when Trump is inaugurated in January.
Ignore them. Find another job. Keep a journal.
