Big-name libs advocate cutting off relatives who voted for Trump — and it’s downright un-American
NY Post ^ | 11/13/24 | Kirsten Fleming

It’s time to make your echo chamber great again.

In 2024, that means curating your world to exclude those who voted for the 45th and, now, 47th president, Donald J. Trump.

Especially if those voters are close friends or family members — slap the ban on them. Just say no to sharing a plate of Thanksgiving yams with your Trump-supporting aunt, even if she voted for Obama twice and Hillary in 2016.

It’s the doctor’s orders!

Last Friday, MSNBC’s resident Chicken Little, Joy “Democracy is Falling” Reid, welcomed to her show Yale psychiatrist Dr. Amanda Calhoun — who dished out a prescription for festering bitterness and loneliness.

“There is a societal norm that, if somebody is your family, that they are entitled to your time, and I think the answer is absolutely not,” Calhoun told Reid when talking about how to interact with Trump voters.

“So if you are going into a situation where you have family members, where you have close friends, who you know have voted in ways that are against you, against your livelihood, it’s completely fine to not be around those people and to tell them why.”

Isn’t that what Festivus is for? To get together and air your grievances — the operative word being “together.”

OK. I'll post to this thread the same thing I just posted on another. This is going to get easy responding to the insane, I hope it doesn't encourage me to become lazy, but here goes.

It's the left. They need help. Institutionalized help. Make Sanitariums great again.

Next Denounce your family to the party block leader for retribution. Sounds like the the German Democratic Republic. Here’s what the AI search engine says about the GDR. The GDR was a democratic state that aimed to create a just society based on equality. Sound familiar. I feel sad for future generations that will have to live with this crap. The GDR was a corrupt police state, much like Harris would have taken America.

I lost all contact with my only sibling, my brother , over my support for Trump, back in 2016. Have never heard a word from him since. Well, he can go F himself . I hope he is miserable beyond belief right now . May he stew in his own wretched juices for the next 4 years. He deserves it.Pissant..

To communists, there is no family. There is no individual. There is only collective. Nothing beside it. Nothing outside of it.

The hive mind is a sad thing to witness in a mammal.

My son in law said I watch FoxNews too much. I said I know it’s getting pretty liberal!

Son is a wokester who would mimic the Red Guards informing state security of my disloyalty to the state. One thing I can not abide by is rats, especially commie rats. Last time he visited my wife, I spent the day at work and came home as he was leaving. IF you are guessing this has caused some tension you are correct

That is so sad and I feel sorry for your wife.
Her kids don’t realize that they’re not only punishing your wife for their selfish reasons, they’re also punishing their own children.
The day will come, when their children start asking questions about grandma...
Those kids will most likely be very resentful for what their parents did to them, and how they were used as a tool against your wife.

I cut the liberal family out years ago. I’ve spoken to my older self proclaimed social justice warrior, BLM activist, LGBTQ supporting brother once in the last 17 years. It started when my youngest daughter joined the Army in 2006 and he told me she’d come home in pieces in a body bag.

I have no liberal friends by design... Makes life more enjoyable.

Yale psychiatrist Dr. Amanda Calhoun. Does this mean that Dr. Amanda WON’T be coming out to the farm for Thanksgiving Dinner? This really hurts, but I’ll try to keep a stiff upper lip.

A Death Cult.

Be thankful you don’t have to be with the anti-Trump slobs. Cut them off as long as one can. Find new friends and avoid the antiTrumpers at all costs.
IMHO

It’s a control issue like most cult behavior. Their kids are watching this behavior and will likely mimic it with their parents when they get older.
Some of my family are locked-step Democrats. My philosophy is “Everyone has the right to be wrong”

Everyone in my family supports DJT except for one or two- and they are smart enough to know to keep their mouths shut around me.

when it’s your own kids doing this the best and only real world way to show them the error of their own selfish way is to will everything they WOULD have gotten to the most conservative cause you can find but don’t say a word about it. remember the reading of the will at the end of “Gran Torino”. remember who got the car. now go and do likewise.

And the hypocrites are calling for *unity* and *bipartisanship*, which means everyone does what the democrats want and nobody can disagree with them.

They are such world class manipulators and control freaks.

I've heard that can leave the will open to being contested. The solution is to will them just a few dollars, maybe even $1, and give the rest away.

That way they can't claim they were excluded from the will.
