All of my Leftist "friends" are divorced and/or have been married multiple times (I can't think of any who are currently married.)
The males of the group of long-time SJW Prototypes I grew up with have not fared well. Most of those Beta-orbiters have passed away over the last 10 years due to alcohol/drug/obesity issues. The females are still thriving (or so they claim) although not having their audience around for boasting about their random jogger-hookups surely must take some of the fun out.
Most of my Conservative friends are still married from their teens/20s and have grandchildren. I'm seeing an odd trend though: their offspring are getting pregnant a lot, but rarely getting married. Despite the parents' best efforts, their offspring have grown up indoctrinated/peer-pressured by the SJW/LGBTQRSWTF/black-ization of MSM/Hollywood-based "culture" and as Yuri Bezmenov warned in the 1980s, are more in tune with those "values" than the morality of their forebears. They may have some degree of understanding that their actions and lifestyle reflect on their family, but do not understand why having a child out-of-wedlock would be frowned upon (because that is "normalized" in today's society, by celebrities and the poverty-stricken alike.) I don't mean the moral implications of tarnishing ones' family's image, I mean making the long-term commitment to be responsible for that child's rearing and helping them further the reputation and accomplishment of their ancestors (and why that should matter.)
On the bright side, I know some younger unmarried folk who are very motivated in taking care of their children because of their own childhood experience with neglectful parents. That is really encouraging to see, and those kids are turning out well: proper manners, interesting in learning, good behavior in general. It's certainly better than the opposite, because I have seen the havoc non-disciplined kids wreak when they get big enough to cause serious damage.

What makes me happy is green grass, blue skies, and fiddle music. They're going to have a hard time taking that away from me. Everything else is window dressing.
All my friends who married in their 20s.. conservative friends, still married.. two liberal friends? divorced. We're all in our 30s now.

Well that's a no brainer.
I think that's what Equity is for, shared misery.
Socialism = pre-cannibalism.

Thats 'equality'.
There are T-Shirts on Amazon that say this:
YOU FIND IT OFFENSIVE?
I find it FUNNY!
That's why I'm HAPPIER than you!
It is not specifically political but a liberal will get mad and make it totally true.
Except there are no liberals. Only Marxists and patriots.
I would like to take CatTurd out to dinner and have a great conversation
"Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy."
Keep dropping those truth bombs, Catturd!!!
Thankfully they haven't succeeded.
Catturd is on fire today!
GOP wants to help them.
So true, but it will never work cause happiness is intrinsic, as is being a miserable SOB (lefties).
The only good thing about socialism and communism is that it breeds capitalism. Me own quote. Ism's n sheeeit.
