I have made the mistake several times in the last few years of assuming that anyone who seemed pretty cool and halfway intelligent wasn't maga and would never vote for him. Finding out the truth on IG about quite a few people this election cycle was bonkers - especially those who showed up 11/6. - ThreadSky

Are we talking about the day after the first CFP poll that was released on 11/5? Or the other group on 11/6?

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

Probably a lot of overlap

bigirish33.bsky.social•111 days ago

Years ago, I deleted F/B. I can’t imagine the cesspool it was a few weeks ago. IG was bad enough. Blocked my own father. Just can’t handle it.

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

Yeah, I cut things off with 2 of my brothers. I don't need that kind of hate in my life, family or not.

jeffmac.bsky.social•111 days ago

But the economy, Roz…THE ECONOMY

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

Yeah let me know how that works out

jeffmac.bsky.social•110 days ago

Alt coin szn bruh! My doge is pumping so big. Cant wait to find some girls to split a date with and ask them what they bring to the table!!!

Economy bros. Probably.

rozinreallife.bsky.social•110 days ago

It's always the guys with absolutely nothing to offer, including a personality.

crazyus.com•111 days ago

Bonkers & heartbreaking!

So well articulated. Thank you! What happened to them? Why? 🤦‍♀️😭

traumaqueen327.bsky.social•110 days ago

I used to think that people were inherently good but 2016 and 2024 have shown me that waaaay too many people only needed a gentle nudge to expose their racism, misogyny and "Christian Values".

crazyus.com•110 days ago

It’s sad that it really is only a gentle nudge that exposes the worst in them.

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

Gullible idiots, imo

emerantura.bsky.social•111 days ago

Yep. It ha been incredibly disappointing to say the least

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

Big time. I should know better in a red state, but that dude goes against everything I grew up being told was right.

emerantura.bsky.social•111 days ago

😞😞 right? Like I know we are in a red state… But come on man have some morals.

bwfan.bsky.social•111 days ago

It did go against everything I was told was right. I have one son who just wouldn’t listen. My other kids were just fine.

emerantura.bsky.social•111 days ago

I’m glad your other kids listened

bwfan.bsky.social•111 days ago

It is kinda weird my wife daughter and I just can’t stomach him. My oldest son hates the tariff BS but my middle son thinks he is going to make the economy better and he might be able to buy a home.

emerantura.bsky.social•111 days ago

The wild thing is his economic plan is absolutely awful, unless you’re rich

801utes.bsky.social•110 days ago

Obviously always knew my parents were very conservative but going against everything they ever taught and also what they said in the 90s about Clinton was so disappointing.😔

casdem.bsky.social•111 days ago

I started out being disappointed, but now I’m to the angry stage. I’ll never understand it.

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

A lot of them, it's because they only care about themselves and they're okay if things are terrible for even the people they "love" the most if it means that they will be in a slightly better situation (which they probably won't). Pisses me off, too.

hilerie.bsky.social•110 days ago

It’s hard and it feels like I can’t trust anyone. Some people I thought were safe are not. The mask slipped after Election Day. Kind of a lonely feeling. I am very cautious online and what I share.

daddyo.bsky.social•111 days ago

It opened our eyes wide open. We had planned on moving out of Utah in the summer to get away from Utah politics now were heading out of the country. Wash the dust off my feet over this place.

traumaqueen327.bsky.social•110 days ago

I'm basically feral at this point. I assume everyone is on the crazy 🍊 train until they prove otherwise.

jimmizzle.bsky.social•110 days ago

I recently cut off a 20+ year friendship because said friend all of a sudden feels he is emboldened to us the N word as a white male due to this election and the past results

rozinreallife.bsky.social•110 days ago

Ewwwww

jimmizzle.bsky.social•110 days ago

Extremely disheartening. Spent all that time supporting and accepting this person only to find out that his reality is not acceptable. If only I could turn back time.

allenschow.bsky.social•111 days ago

Not me! I'm still cool

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

You're a good one

allenschow.bsky.social•111 days ago

Got too many women and now a baby girl to protect

aquimiranomas.bsky.social•110 days ago

’ve had so many conversations with a friend in my neighborhood, always progressive, open, brilliantly smart. A week ago started name dropping and quoting maga podcasters, I can’t stop thinking about it, I didn’t see it coming, blindsided. I have fewer and fewer people to earnestly talk to everyday.

nathanelloyd.bsky.social•111 days ago

Like 80% of FB/IG--which means 80% of family and childhood friends. It's been eye opening...

jazzazzin.bsky.social•111 days ago

My wife and I are basically the only ones in our immediate or extended families who despise MAGA and wonder who the hell taped their eyelids open and forced them all to watch NewsMax all decade. 😭

t-rav91.bsky.social•111 days ago

I just don’t understand it. But many close to me absolutely love the guy for some reason. It’s the strangest thing.

brittabee.bsky.social•111 days ago

I no longer trust anyone ever.

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

Exactly. That cool neighbor down the street who seemed so nice? Not gonna be spending time around my kids now that I've read their maga posts.

brittabee.bsky.social•111 days ago

Oh, yikes. You definitely don’t need more MAGA rhetoric in your kids’ ears. 🤦🏻‍♀️

joelhelfire.bsky.social•111 days ago

This is me. Not just reactions. Permanent face.

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

The ACCURACY.

I am David. All the David faces. Every single one.

joelhelfire.bsky.social•111 days ago

lol. Exactly!

I still need to post about my frustrations with my ex and her voting.

yfangirlj.bsky.social•111 days ago

Add my ex and his voting & telling my daughter to listen to Ben Shapiro while you're at it

hlakkiing.bsky.social•110 days ago

joelhelfire.bsky.social•111 days ago

Good Lord. I'll see if I can work that in to my story. No guarantees.

rozinreallife.bsky.social•111 days ago

Hey you can add my ex who told me I've been brainwashed and said I never felt this way before (because I shut up around him long ago to avoid the hell that my life world be for disagreeing). He's a big Tucker guy.

mimrebel.bsky.social•111 days ago

I'm afraid to talk to my "friends" because I'm in the same position.

rozinreallife.bsky.social•110 days ago

I had an entire conversation over the summer with a neighbor who seemed normal where I talked about a guy who asked me out being an idiot djt supporter. Flash forward to last month when her husband's IG was all maga all day and I was like whoops.

mimrebel.bsky.social•110 days ago

Oy. My work "friends" made fun of our other coworker for being a die-hard djtidiot, so I assumed they weren't voting for him. Nope. They did. They just weren't vocal about it until after.
