I think I've finally had enough of their bullshit. I used to be an obnoxious liberal but sometime in 2014 before the midterms I came to my senses. Some of these people have been my friends for years so I've put up with their snarky comments, telling me I'm misguided or confused and I'll come to my senses. I've put up with them ganging up on me and yelling in my face about how and why I'm wrong. I've put up with the constant Trump and Conservative bashing. But after these last two weeks of all of them pandering and virtue signaling I finally think I'm done. I've never heard a single of one them ever mention black inequalities or their concern for black lives. Some of them are posting ways to defund the police. I think I've hung on for so long because everyone I know is a liberal and if I stop hanging out with them, I'll have no friends left but at this point I would rather be friendless than surrounded by a bunch of mindless hypocrites.

It’s like they can not believe anyone could think anything different than the herd. It’s literally offensive to them to hear other opinions. I think since what they think or believe is just what they think everyone else thinks or believes, there is no substance to them. Right or wrong, at least I can articulate what I think and why I think it and back it up with facts and logic and reasons. Not so for the sheeple. They get irrationally angry and launch into personal insults because all they have to back themselves up is this unshakable belief that the vast majority of people must be right! Then maybe they might ask me if I also believe the earth is flat! Lol The irony...
I'm a teacher in L.A. (for a couple more days, anyway). Almost all the teachers are brainwashed, and yes, they cannot BEAR to hear other opinions. They almost panic: "Stop, stop, don't talk anymore, go somewhere else and say that," you can see their hands start shaking.
