Your neighbor legitimately deserves your thanks for helping on snow duty, but how much thanks?
Oh, heck no. The Trumpites next door to our pandemic getaway, who seem as devoted to the ex-president as you can get without being Q fans, just plowed our driveway without being asked and did a great job.
How am I going to resist demands for unity in the face of this act of aggressive niceness?
Of course, on some level, I realize I owe them thanks — and, man, it really looks like the guy back-dragged the driveway like a pro — but how much thanks?
These neighbors are staunch partisans of blue lives, and there aren't a lot of anything other than white lives in neighborhood.
This is also kind of weird. Back in the city, people don’t sweep other people’s walkways for nothing.
SNIP
When someone helps you when you’re down, or snowed in, it’s almost impossible to regard them as a blight on the world. In fact, you’re more likely to be overwhelmed with gratitude and convinced of the person’s inherent goodness.
You might end up like the upper-middle-class family I stayed with in France as a teenager. They did not attend a citywide celebration for the 100th birthday of Charles de Gaulle, the war hero who orchestrated the liberation of his country from Nazi Germany in 1944. They did have several portraits of Philippe Pétain, Nazi collaborator, on their wall.
When I screwed up the courage to ask how it was for them during the occupation, the lady of the house replied, “We were happy because the Nazis were very polis.” I didn’t know the word, so I excused myself to consult a French-English dictionary. I was in tears when I found the entry: "polite."

I recommend reading to understand how leftist opinion influencers operate.
All of those fit the current Marxist’s in charge of SODOM ON THE POTOMAC.
Three observations.
1. That is not the writer’s house.
2. She lives in Brooklyn Heights, so her driveway cannot amount too much.
3. Her neighbor will never clear her driveway again.
"They did have several portraits of Philippe Pétain, Nazi collaborator, on their wall."
Plus, I'll wager any amount of money that the retarded author just made the whole France up.
See my tag line.

The tortured comparisons in the article for Trump supporters state more about the author than her neighbors.....
Her passionate disassociative views of Trump and Trump supporters are delusional......
She is a very, very mentally disturbed individual.......
“We survived the lawn-sign war with our Trumpite neighbors.
But here’s my piece about what happened when they brought out the big guns: kindness.”
[This is the Tweet of the uber-liberal twit who wrote that screed for the LAT about her Nazi neighbor who plowed her driveway snow. Fun comments.]

GUILTY
This is a very dangerous article. This is exactly how the Nazis started to frame the Jews. In a normal society there would be a significant backlash to this. Democrats are very very ugly people. Remember when they all ran around with “Love Trumps Hate” signs and planted those virtuous yard signs in their lawn stating how wonderful they were? Yeah, and Satan can also mask himself as an angel of light.
“ Notice how this author not so cleverly tries to associate Trump supporters with Hezbollah, Louis Farrakhan and Nazi collaborators in France.”
****************
Yeh, picked up on that; referring to we Trump’sters as “polite Nazis”.
The author also didn’t get history right about DeGualle; fact is DeGualle had nothing to do with the liberation of France. He was bitter about not being treated as an equal by Churchill and Roosevelt even though the allied troops halted on the outskirts of Paris so he could lead French troops into the city. Quite a concession to make considering France’s posture toward the allies during the early part of the war.
That’s how leftists “think.” No matter how nicely you might treat them, they will still equate you to Nazis and terrorists.
Unity my ass. I want nothing to do with libfilth.
Another example of the left feeling we are evil because we disagree with their American-hating ways.
Another example of a leftist getting history wrong.
Another example of the left insulting 75 million patriots because they voted for Trump.
Another example of a complete leftist moron that worships AOC’s fable of terror and fear during the riot. How awful this leftist is so stupid he didn’t recognize she was lying.
Another example of a leftist weeping over the riot at the Capital and hating Trump supporters -but I am certain this leftist isn’t enraged (if he even knew about it) when Puerto Rico terrorists attacked the Capital and would likely justify it.
Finally, I bet this moron has no idea the skit (White Like Me) was was making fun of the book Black Like Me.
Is this supposed to be satire? It soundsike the babylon bee. Seriously, I dont get this peace at all. Is the author being honest? If so, there’s no hope to coexist. None.
It is impossible to see eye-to-eye with people who insist on living in an alternate reality.
Eye bleach...
Most of my immediate neighbors are Trump supporters. We all had signs. My next door neighbor on one side is a democrat although she seemed to sit this election out.
She is very nice the few times we’ve talked. She’s a homebody h=who rarely comes out. When she does it’s just as far as her car.
Her 28 year old son lives with her. He cuts the grass once a month or so. (he’s pretty lazy but taking care of his mom is his responsibility, not mine)
If he looks to be struggling to do something, I’ll go over and help but on the other hand, I’m not about to take over his responsibilities.
Nope, not satire. As mentioned in an earlier post, there was a rebuttal piece posted in The American Conservative:
