Let Your Rabid Leftist Friends And Family Go

Let Your Rabid Leftist Friends And Family Go

The holidays are coming, and what used to be a fun time with family and friends is now, honestly, a total pain in the ass. Not because cooking is a chore or you’re not happy to see them, but because there is like one or more of them who are simply miserable leftists sour over the humiliating loss Democrats (and their self-esteem) suffered in the election. To hell with it, and them. If people are so consumed with politics that they can’t put it aside and simply be a human being, you are much better off without them in your life.

I get it, no one wants to cut off family members or lifelong friends, but better that than making your existence miserable. If they can’t set aside a political loss, screw them. 

Did you spend Thanksgiving 2020 whining endlessly about Joe Biden? Probably not. Nor did you likely spend any of the subsequent Thanksgivings lecturing the guests about how Joe was progressing down the trail of senility. 

It’s more likely that politics didn’t come up at all, because why would it? 

Unless you’re leftist drone, incapable of existing in a world where someone dares to disagree with you. 

I don’t know that I’ve ever asked anyone how they voted, I’ve either just known or didn’t care – more like it didn’t occur to me to ask. Politics has come up in conversation, obviously, but since I work in it for a living and don’t want to deal with it 24/7, I generally remain vague about what I do. I imagine it’s a bit like being a doctor who is asked what they do at a party, so they tell the guy they’re a doctor. That guy then immediately starts in on how they’ve got this pain in their side and how it hurts more when they do this, or would they mind taking a look at this other thing, etc. All the doctor wants to do is have a couple of drinks and hang out with some friends. 

Nobody wants to do more work off the clock after a day or week of work. 

It’s kind of like that when you work in politics – everyone has an opinion and wants to know what you think of whatever the big story is. Best to avoid it.

But that’s strangers; people you don’t know. Friends and family are supposed to be a respite from that. If they can’t be – they can’t just let it go and be the people they’ve always been – you’re better off without them. 

Sad as it is, it’s true. People who get their news from MSNBC are more likely to be this way – those miserable, angry people who can’t handle losing or that anyone would disagree with them. Conspiracy theorist and congenital liar Rachel Maddow has conditioned the feebleminded to believe every wild plot twist the dark recesses of the progressive dark web cooks up, and Joy Reid marinates is in racism for the self-hating white suburban crowd and anyone outside that group refusing to acknowledge their complicity in their own shortcomings and failures. 

Reid has advised these people to avoid anyone who voted differently this Thanksgiving, I say we take her up on it. Your life will be better off if you don’t burn a single calorie trying to convince one of these people, who will be compelled to tell you why they’re not coming, to come anyway. 

Honestly, at this point these people have already removed themselves from your life. In the build up to the election or at any point since Donald Trump rode down his escalator in 2015, they’ve been slowly backing away because you “think wrong.” Let them be gone. If they want to come back later, fine – there will likely be some reason an old friend needs a person they know they can trust, should they snap out of the grasp of the progressive groupthink cult. Until then, don’t waste your time.

Your life will be much more enjoyable if you don’t have anyone who would take life advice from Joy Reid, no matter how close they were. If they’re willing to do this over politics, they are defective. It’s not you, it’s them. It was always them and it was always going to be them. Trump didn’t break them, he exposed them. The leftist media broke them, and you can’t fix them. Accept that and move on. 

If they’re worth knowing they will realize the mistake they’ve made, and if they don’t they aren’t worth knowing.
