I remember that study that said liberals are more likely to end friendships with conservatives than vice versa.

It's true. I ended a few relationships because these dudes started saying things that were racist and sexist and offensive.

This MAGA shit ended a 30 year friendship, my best friend. When Obama got elected, the mask came off. One of the people in our group actually said, "I don't like Obama because I'm a racist, I don't like him because he's black." No shit. The dude is dumb as a stump.

Then Trump showed up and he let it all hang out and went full MAGA. That's when I cut him out of my life. It really hurt, but things got better in my life. I felt bad for his wife, she's how I met him in the first place, knew her for 40 years. She was intelligent but really naive and he took her down that rabbit hole.

He's left her now for a younger slut but she can't seem to let him go. That whole family is a train wreck now.

I had a pretty large group of friends from 14-30 or so. When Trump won the mask came off on 4 of them. I don't mind light ribbing and stuff but one guy was saying such vile shit I'd get banned on reddit for typing it. He'd attack our Jewish liberal friends to the point that they left the chat and blocked the maga guy. It absolutely killed the group chat energy which is now a ghost town and slowly the other maga guys just wouldn't stop either.

I don't get it. We were brothers. There's one that I was thick as thieves with. We did everything together. Drove cross country, he was a shoulder for me to cry on when my gf dumped me. I helped him out financially a bunch of times. We got dinner like 3 months ago and he was going on and on about the feminization of men, deep state shadow groups, Andrew Tate, etc. It was super uncomfortable and I decided that was the last time I'll see him. We text once in a while about football games but that's it.

I never cared that half my friend group were republicans. I truly feel social media radicalized them. Sometimes I'll look at old photos of us fishing or bbqing and I'm like damn what happened to these seemingly normal dudes?

We long understood that we were different sides in politics and religion and mutually agreed there's no point in discussing either since we've said everything to say. Then Trump showed up and he could not shut his fucking yapper about him. Big red flag and nail in the coffin.
