Do I really want to be friends with someone who thinks the meaning of the word 'is' is ambiguous? Do I really want to date someone who is genuinely confused of the meaning of the word 'alone?'
No, I agree with you. But some things do transend politics...if they are a once or twice a year visit.
I agree with you but I was speaking about closer friends and acquaintences who I lost a lot of respect for in their willingness to compromise their integrity. I didn't become their enemy, but they just quietly became 'christmas card' friends and I otherwise blew them off whenever I could.
Life got better.
