I have no idea how they found out that I went to DC, but now everyone knows. They condemned me as if I was a complete animal who does not think things through (I'm a young adult). Did the usual text-book comparing me to others like what families do. I'm thinking of breaking off from them at least for the time being. I will not stop fighting for this country and for good causes. If my efforts are harming them, then break off I shall.

What did Trump say? The more righteous your fight, the more opposition that you will face. Stay strong men.

Please have some grace with them. They are scared. The media has done this to them. Be strong and love them through it. You only have one family.

As someone who has cut out commie family, life has never been better. I never picked fights with them and whenever they brought up politics, I didn't get mad or make snide comments, but they always did to me. I don't feel one ounce bad about it because of those reasons.

Blood isn't thicker than water. There is no family in the commie world. Your "family" members have first allegiance to the state and will sell you out.

Forgiveness is key. Show them the compassion They wont show you.

They know not what they do.

I'm not sure. If they already condemned him, they already made up their mind he was a bad person before even talking with him to try to understand why. In that case, time to man up and tell them to mind their own business and stop supporting fraud. Don't argue just to argue, but your convictions matter and they can't gaslight you into accepting fraud.

Nah, fuck this. At this point if people can't see what's going on, they're brainwashed and will sell you out for 30 pieces of silver. I've been insulted by family including my own grandfather and I hit back a thousand times harder in letting them know they're complicit and brainwashed.

This is the communist playbook. I wouldn't break away from them, you're smarter than that. Be above them, be calm. Instead of arguing with them, ask them questions. Don't get defensive, keep asking them questions as to why they think the way they are speaking of. Be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger.

You are right, sir. I have to be stoic, especially when we are about to enter this dark winter

They are demoralized, and will sell you out to the state eventually.

This is what I have done with my family several times over the years, especially after a heated election. I don't "announce" a separation, so they don't obsess over my absence. I just take a step back and don't call or visit as much. Just enough communication that they can't accuse me of abandoning the family, but a large amount of space in between contact.

If they shun you for that, you can find a better family elsewhere...like here! We’re all family. Dysfunctional, but still family.

Thank you patriot! We should all group up somewhere, where we can start like our own country oops I mean family

That is a cool Trump quote, I had not heard it before.

I thought I was the only one that use the word righteous.....right action.

best of luck to you pede

you reminded me of a solid quote:

"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot."

-Mark Twain

Don’t burn any bridges my friend, ecspecially with family. It’s not their fault that they don’t see what you see. Don’t force it on them either. Truth is a burden not everyone can bear

conservativeyuppie 2 points ago +2 / -0

This right here is the reason why conservatives have lost so much ground over the past few decades. Stop appeasing people like this and cut them off. They won't think twice about selling you out once the witch hunts come for you.

I would recommend dropping contact with all left-wing members of your family. Nothing good will come of associating with them.

Stay strong. The left attended violent BLM riots for months with almost zero consequences. They have ZERO right to condemn you.

MizzusC 1 point ago +1 / -0

We are ALL going to have to train our minds and hearts to defend our rights in the coming years. And we will have to do it with our heads held high and righteous hearts in prayer to stay strong and In unison - know that you are one of millions and forgive your loved ones for being so easily brainwashed by the media. Their power is so strong. But together- we are stronger.

Only you can know the right path with your family, stay and love them, or if they are beyond hope leave and cut off ties.

Either way we are here to support you and so is God.

don't give up on them. Bombard them with logic and truth backed up by evidence. They probably trust MSM more than they should. Show them how MSM is really just propaganda and divorced from truth. Once their trust in MSM is broken, it may be easier to convince them of the truth

1
Pepe_longcockings 1 point ago +1 / -0

That’s shitty. All you can do is stand up for what you believe in and be proud of yourself for holding true to those beliefs. if you are consistent and adamant about those beliefs , they will hopefully try to understand your point of view instead of dismissing it as something rash or impetuous.

1
ThomasJ [S] 1 point ago +1 / -0

The thing is, I want to live the rest of my life doing what I think is right. I want to build alternative infrastructure that will help our cause(i am trying to work at gab). They made a great point that something like that will affect them too, and I am "selfish" because of it.

1
Pepe_longcockings 1 point ago +1 / -0

Honestly they are the selfish ones, for worrying how you pursuing your dream negatively affects them. It sounds like its not a battle that will be won through rational discourse, and i’m sorry that’s the case. I went through several years where my parents did not approve of my choices and my life, but i don’t regret that time as difficult as it may have been for all involved. You are entering a chapter that will be difficult, but the best thing you can do is stay in touch - call on birthdays, be home for the holidays, be warm and genuine even if they are not. All chapters come to an end and this one will too
