Reply to comment by Smith-WessonPat in What's that site where you can see people's voting information? by Usedtoknowsomeone46

Yes. After Roe and Trump I refuse to associate with any Republican. It is what it is.

That’s a horrible attitude. I vehemently disagree with the politics of most of my closest friends, but they are friends nonetheless. Just don’t talk about it and vote how you want.

My friends probably don’t know I’m a registered Republican. I actually voted Democrat the past few years just cus the Republican Party hasn’t had a decent candidate. I’m no Trumper. I’m all for womens health and racial/socioeconomic equality, I just don’t like big (and inefficient) government taxing the shit out of the middle class.

I’m a registered conservative and my political positions are my own. I don’t expect to espouse them and have people instantly agree. I’m all for very slow, methodical change, not radical and whimsical flights of fancy like the current generations seem to want that have no basis in reality and are based on what’s temporarily popular.

No it's very happy now that I've cut toxic Republicans out. I've noticed a big improvement.

I mean, you do you, bud. Just seems like a miserable life. You going to check on your co-workers and your mailman, too? Maybe you should start a spreadsheet!

It is what it is, it is you choose to live a life where you can’t coexist with people you’ve labeled ‘others’. But it is your choice. Hope it serves you well and isn’t part of an overall crushing depression and poor quality of life.

You’re welcome. Good luck basing your relationships on politics. 100% proven effective for all of human history and definitely in no way has proven time and time again to be narrow minded, short sighted and prone to lead to problems. In no way could someone realize that about you, lie to you about their politics and take advantage of you. That would be unheard of.

It is certainly in no one’s best interest to determine what relationships you make based on how a person treats people, what they bring in to your life or how caring they are towards you and your wellbeing. Just make sure they voted for the guy that keeps getting filmed sniffing kids instead of the one who said pussy

Some people register to be able to participate in primaries. That doesn't say how they actually vote.
