Both my parents, three of my buddies my aunt and my cousn all said at different times to me
'guess what Trump is after telling people to do......' followed by their rendtiion of what the TV told them
i couldn't believe theyd swallowed what is an absolute farcical story.
Is acceptance of what the tv says still that widespread?
Thank God for Scott Adams or I might think Im going insane
You must have a nicer family than me. 😂 I’m cool with the parents but the toxic siblings are out.
No I don’t. I haven’t spoken to my 3 siblings since 2009. It feels bad and I can’t blame it all on them. I think it’s natural to be competitive about politics because we ( I ) have a tendency to identify with an ideology. At this point I’m thinking we’re so divided that we can’t even agree to disagree. I gave up on logic and reasoning with any Trump haters. Luckily my mother ( ex hippie) finally came around due to the obvious media lies. Never let anyone tell you what your aloud to think feel etc... family included. I’ve had to learn to choose my battles wisely. Sometimes you can be right or be happy it’s up to you to decide if winning a debate is worth it . Only time will tell who’s philosophy is better, left or right. I know how shitty bitter selfish siblings can be. Indifference to your rivals thoughts can be a powerful tool. My friend uses this statement when someone parrots the dems dishonest talking points ( that is an interesting point of view) . Good luck , hit me up anytime.
It’s only partly politics for me. My brother and I totally disagree but we can talk about things that aren’t politics and be nice to each other. My insane sisters are a different story. They’ve been cruel their whole lives and them openly hoping that hydroxychloroquine won’t work just to make the President look bad was an awakening for me. It doesn’t matter what I or anyone say their hearts are black. They’re motivated by hate, hate for society, hate for men, hate and jealousy of anyone who is happy. I’ve spent my whole life trying to be nice to them to try to make them nicer people. At a certain point, when you realize that they make your life measurably worse, you have to walk away. It wasn’t fun and it wasn’t easy. It was super sad. But I’m getting used to not talking to them and each day is easier and brighter and not crowded by their idiot drama.
Good to hear. I love my siblings yet don’t miss the backhanded compliments, negative outlook, and distorted sense of superiority. I often think of reaching out , then I ask myself ( why?) . God speed and hope you have a wonderful week ahead
