Interesting pro MAGA take. He don’t lose any “true friends,” he claims. So he just lost a ton of “general friends.” They are better off.
Well I agree that if someone loses friends just because of who they vote for, regardless of which party that is, then they probably weren’t that good of friends anyway.
I’ve never ever lost friend just because of who I voted for. Nor have I requested to stop being friends with someone based on who they vote for.
In the area I live in, people voted all kinds of ways. And we all get along just fine.
I think basing one’s friends based on their political party isn’t the best way to go about things. But meh, people do what they do.
Well, you must be a straight white male. (No offense)
I’m biracial and bisexual. So no.
Will you be volunteering for the work camp or do they need to come and get you? 😅
There won’t be any work camps. Gay people won’t be lined up on the streets and tattooed and shipped off. There will still be elections. And we’ll have a different president in 2028.
And see, I think you know all of this, but that you think it’s fun hyperbole to jump on.
You know what I think is really gonna change with a Trump presidency? Nothing. It’s going to be same shit, different day. Just like we get now.
Harris wasn’t going to change shit. Trump won’t change shit. Both parties like things just exactly how they are.
I proudly voted Socialist. And even more happy about it now. Because I stuck to my morals, even against all the hate I was getting here on Lemmy. And here we are.
And what’s really ironic is that people here on Lemmy HATED that I was voting third party. And you know what I’m seeing all over the place on Lemmy now? I’m seeing variations of “We need a third party!” and “Fuck this! I’m voting third party from now on!” and “Fuck this two-party system!”
I was correct then. I’m correct now. I haven’t change my mind at all. Looks like Lemmy is starting to though.
I wish that AOC and Bernie would team up, start a new third party, and kick some ass. I don’t think it’ll happen, but would be awesome if it would!
I hope you’re right.
I’m just saying… be open to the idea that this might happen. It starts with the undocumented, and moved from there.

And I’m saying be open to the idea that it’s fearmongering. There are plenty of gay republicans. They aren’t gonna line up gay people. Stop.
I feel the same way he does when it comes to insults I have received for not voting for Harris. The grief and hate I got was way worse from Dems than Republicans (I didn’t vote Trump either), especially here on Lemmy.
From the article:
But his initial revelation did receive some backlash.
‘You are a dumba**,’ one X user wrote.
Conservatives, he said, were more tolerant.
Bach wrote: 'I’ve never experienced such overwhelming kindness, understanding, and encouragement as I have from supporters of President Trump in the past 24 hours.
‘And I’ve never faced such vicious personal attacks, name-calling, and insults—intended to wound, shame, and silence—as I have from Leftists in the same time frame.’
