I unfriended people during this election. It wasn’t really because of their political beliefs. It was because they exposed themselves of being hateful vile human garbage.
Sore loser snowflakes. What a bunch of dumb-sh*t crybabies. Loving the schadenfreude!
Yet they have no hesitance to showing their own political bias. I am inundated with posts by people I know who post only Dem propaganda.
But, but, but......what about tolerance?
True and so do RINO or Anti-trump Republicans.
Good. I have a lot more offending to do....
That’s because politics is their religion, and the all-controlling state is their god.
Yes, they are much less tolerant with anyone who does not think in lockstep with them. It comes from the attitude that they are “morally and intellectually” our superiors.
Thus we get standard libtard response:
I found this to be absolutely true on Facebook. Numerous “friends” unfriended or blocked me. I’ve only unfriended one person ever during my 8 FB years. That guy insulted me once, and then again even after I extended an olive branch.
Ok, so it was a literal olive branch and I extended it sort of near his left eye.
I don't really "do" facebook but it lets me see pics of relatives babies,etc...
but I certainly don't go on there for rude, caustic words and accusations....
And the RATs are always talking about tolerance.
Personally, I wouldn’t be friends with a Democrat in the first place.
A lot of Democrat/Liberals are very fragile in the sense of mental health. They’re just barely hanging on, are one trigger incident away from a complete psychotic break, going postal, doing away with themselves, etc.
This is one of the reasons why NPR is so careful to put news that might be unpleasant to Democrat/Liberals in a way that actually sounds like it supports their belief system, even though the underlying facts say the opposite. They know their listeners can be very easily triggered to fly completely off the handle, decide to never give another penny to them, go jump off the Golden Gate bridge, and the like.
I can’t gloat over this one, I have unfriended a lot of liberals on Facebook. I’m actually willing to be on friendly terms with them in real life, I just don’t want to see their constant links to Salon on my newsfeed. Some would say “just unfollow them” but here’s the thing: if I’m still linked with them, and I don’t take them up on their assumptions, they will think I can’t think of any way to refute them. Silence implies consent, and all that. I do not consent and I don’t want them thinking I do, so I unlink from them.
I was unfriended by a first cousin and my HS Science teacher. Both lefties.
Like I would care if I were to go back to my FB account and someone I don’t know “unfriended” me? Social Media is full of egocentrics who just have to share their daily routines/BS with the world. Why should anyone care if/when I had coffee or tea or worked out or got a burger last night. Sheesh.
Charles Krauthammer put forth the reason for this a while back: Conservatives think that Liberals are stupid, but Liberals think that Conservatives are evil (which, BTW, I find quite interesting, since Liberals tend not to believe in G-d, which means that they shouldn’t believe in Good or Evil - that’s pretty judgmental, isn’t it? - yet they can somehow find room inside of their pin-sized heads to hold those 2 contradictory beliefs).
So, why would you be a FB friend with someone evil?
I have anecdotal proof in my extended family - no one who voted for Trump (or Romney, or McStain, or Bush, etc, etc.) has unfriended anyone else. However, one of my (several) idiot Liberal (but I repeat myself) cousins announced at the time of the Republican convention that if anyone on his friend list was voting for Trump, then there “is no reason to discuss anything with me and I will unfriend you forever.”
OK, fine, do it - its not like that’s a threat or anything, it is more of a great promise like “if you vote for Trump, I’m going to buy you a brand new AR-15 with 1,000 rounds of ammo.” I’m not on FB, but my wife is - and she NEVER sends anything to him. So she stayed his “friend” just to watch...and BOY has it ever been entertaining! Election night and the next day were just beautiful. Wave upon wave of schaedenfreud swept across me, on top of just enjoyed the Hell out of all of the Libs and Leftists wailing like the overgrown babies that they are.
Unfriending someone on FB because of politics is like taking your ball home when you lose a game as a 5-year-old kid...and that pretty accurately pegs the maturity level of these people.
