I just had a crazy conversation on FB with a childhood friend. He is openly gay and does not fully support Trump, but admitted to voting libertarian in protest because ‘not Kamala’. My argument that his vote meant nothing, and prob hurt him fell on deaf ears. 🤷🏼‍♂️ - ThreadSky

@georgewachsmuth.bsky.social
@ttrueman.bsky.social I was civil. My blood is boiling. I left the convo without resolution because it was clear there would be none. I’m still seething.

This is the second time this week I’ve heard someone say, “My blood was boiling” after a convo with someone whose head is up their ass. They did this! And we all have to live with the consequences! It’s a sad, strange, scary time we live in.

God, it's infuriating!! With this guy, he is smart (I thought), caring, and a generally good guy, but this is how he thinks! I have to step back and reconsider. It's maddening! I need to go do Wordle to calm down. brb.

When I was on cesspool still earlier last year. A lesbian couple posted, saying. That they voted for Biden in 2020. But would be voting for #FelonInChief in '24. Won't they get a rude shock. If they haven't already.

eggzbacn.bsky.social•10 hours ago

wtf? What are they voting for?

vincentsworkisdone.bsky.social•10 hours ago

I still don't get why gay and lesbian and other people of that community. Would vote conservative any where in the world.

Oh I saw that post lol. I just shook my head.

vincentsworkisdone.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Was it earlier last year?

cheriegrant.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Well I’ve seen a few but actually the ones im thinking of was a few weeks ago.

Youngish couple. They first posted last year.

do you think there were folks who voted on local issues but left the pres/vp choice blank? in protest of ????

eggzbacn.bsky.social•5 hours ago

Maybe. In NC we overwhelmingly elected a dem gov (though the R choice was repugnant Mark Robinson), and still gave our electorals to Trump.

You should clue him in on the truth... by not voting for Harris, he absolutely voted for Trump and against his own interests.

eggzbacn.bsky.social•10 hours ago

I did! He held ground. I am incredulous. This is a dude I thought was aligned. I was wrong.

driver9.bsky.social•10 hours ago

He's a dude you thought was intelligent. You were wrong.

eggzbacn.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Yes I was. I keep fighting it because we were such good friends. I’m fucking befuddled he could think this way!

“Deaf ears” so sad. He needs to read HCR’s daily letter.

I have a friend who voted Libertarian in protest during the Hillary campaign in 2016. I was furious with him then and was terrified to ask him how he voted, this time.

eggzbacn.bsky.social•3 hours ago

yuck.

Libertarians.
