No
no we haven’t
but a couple of leftists cut us out of their lives
it is in a way good
fair-weather friends (and crazy at that)
life is too short to fuss over such
Emotional Thinkers have a mental flaw.
No but I try to avoid them as much as possible.
“””””Have you cut anyone out of your life because they voted for Hillary / Biden / Harris?””””
It is a bizarre thing to do, I’m too particular to associate with someone so shallow and insecure.
I gave this much thought over the last hour or so and I don’t know anyone that voted for Harris. Life is great!
No, I only really know 2 liberals.
One is a neighbor here. Truly a sweet woman who does honest charity work and reaches out to those in need. But we agree to disagree on politics. All is fine.
The other is a lifetime friend (since college) who is a journalist (a true journalist, not a propagandist) who also has a heart for the downtrodden. He and I are best friends and we connect on every other level so it is fine. I do think his current honey has told him she doesn’t want to do anything with us; and I believe it’s because of politics, but that’s just a feeling. He still interacts with us as before so not an issue.
Yup,
Haven’t spoken to my brother or his family since the first time I voted for Trump.
Yep. Stupid people are too frustrating and shouldn’t be rewarded.
No, it’s crazy that some people do that. Maybe if they were obsessed about a politician I’d stop talking to them but then again that means they were probably crazy about other stuff too.
Thanksgiving and Christmas may well be tense this year in many families.
I have some people in my extended family who are more liberal. I suspect many others on Free Republic have the same situation.
Sometimes I wish we could do surveys on this site. How many of all of your families are made up completely of conservatives, and how many have mixed political families?
No. But I am pretty sure a sister of mine has cut me out.
No but I try to avoid them as much as possible.

Same here.
I have learned to never, ever talk politics with a Dem, including family members. It’s impossible to change their minds, just as they can’t change mine. It’s a fool’s errand to try.
Don’t talk politics and everything is fine.
Like many others, I have not excluded liberal democrats from my life, but liberal friends of mine have excluded me from their life. It’s sad, but it just illustrates the hatred that is at the heart of liberal politics.
This year, no Harris/Walz sign, but a couple of signs for a city hall candidate who is somewhat left-leaning and a bond measure (reminds me of being back in California - they *never* voted down a bond measure where we were at). Fortunately, we have not discussed politics, and I don't plan on it.
Never.
They’ve been subjected to intense psyops to get them in this state by sources they trust unquestionably.
Not sure how to fix this problem. However there have been individuals in the public eye recently who have seen through the programming and are able to break free.
So there’s hope.
No. But if they had I would.
