I don't consider people who would dump me over politics real friends.

Same with me. When my girlfriend start talking politics, I shut down. I don’t say a word. They have no idea I have no intention to vote liberal. One of them I think would understand but the other one is so vocal about politics and can get quite aggressive about it so I don’t want to be in the middle of that

I have friends like that. They are completely extreme deep left and I have some extreme deep right. When cookouts and get togethers happens. These two families fight like its the Cuban missile crisis happening all over again.
Both families great, till politics are brought up.
Me I float in the middle and don't chose sides.

Shame. I have true friends whose politics is very different to mine, but we stay clear of conversations that might cause a rift. I challenge only if someone strays into racist or similar broad brush assumptions about 'them'. Usually that just brings an 'OK' and refining the comment without the generalisation. I can expect the same if I make a daft comment.

As I liberal I can say those of us who are true to the concept we respect everyone’s opinion.

Are they real friends then if you can't be yourself around them?

@lonewolflegends 🤔it is a pity really friendships are broken over silly political differences but some must feel strongly about it

@smiler2012 diehard beliefs in politics, religion, Covid jabs, etc are very polarising for many. Remember 'vacci dating' that became a trend during Peak Vid?

They need to learn to agree to disagree.

Uhm .. so why do you want them for friends ?
Pretty sad, boring sounding friends TBH.

Then they're not your friends.

If someone can't accept difference they have a problem

Newsflash - so are they. They're fascists like you. Americans don't care that "liberal" means a moderate fascist position.
