Search Results: better off

I have a close friend and confidante in a recovery program who is an awesome young man. He’s actually my sponsor.

He leans progressive and I’m a moderate conservative. We have some differences on opinions with politics. But both of us know some subjects are just off limits. But we respect each other very much otherwise.

But I notice women more than men seem to make very quick and easy judgments about people when they don’t agree with their politics. The only time they give men a (semi) pass is if they find the man physically attractive. But even then it’s only a semi buffer.

To be fair men can be like this too. I’ve seen time and time again where guys seemingly “agree” with a woman’s political POV only if they want to sleep with her. I find that to be absolutely beyond pathetic simp bs.

There was a time many years ago when politically opinionated women actually liked it when guys disagreed with them (because it showed the guy had a backbone). But those times are long past ever since Trump first got elected in 2016. So I usually change the subject/don’t respond in those scenarios. If she keeps going off on it then I won’t associate with her anymore. But I will never change my core beliefs just to impress a woman.

But I find that men I disagree politically are easier to get along with in the real world (definitely not on GAG) then women are. Just as long as we have common ground on something else.

Maher suggests that over 40% of Biden supporters, which i expect is 100% of people who identify as democrats, are in favor of a national divorce. Bill doing what he always does to make it appear that republicans are the villains of every story, he narrows the sample population of republicans to the southern US so that it looks like more conservatives than liberals want divorce. The real numbers are probably closer to even. I couldn’t find it, but on another episode he points to another poll that indicates that nearly half of all voters, democrats AND republicans, think the country would be better off if their political opponents were dead.
There’s no evidence to suggest that the democripps and rebloodlicans will ever deescalate for peace and prosperity. So should we just do the national divorce? Or should we just murder each other? Ell oh ell!
