Mom hung up on me
I call Mom at least once a week. We both know our political sides and don't go down that rabbit hole. Tonight she brought up the "Nextdoor" website which I watch to keep up on my neighborhood. I told her I don't post on there because I get crap from people about my views on stuff, said the the last thing I posted was about "Commifornia" and I took a bunch of shit over it on the site, she went into a tizzy calling me a right wing nut and hung up.

Sorry to hear. I'm somewhat in the same boat with my wife who I love dearly, but we respect each others political views. I listen to both sides, but she refuses to hear a conservative site or opinion.
With your mom, I'm sure it will pass. |

Sounds like your mom needs to be chained to a bed somewhere.

I don't even speak to my parents anymore. I have nothing in common with them other than DNA. They're sheep. Fell victim to the propaganda, and I failed to break them free. So it's a lost cause now. They both took the vax, so we'll see how long they last. It's likely their days are now numbered as they both have underlying health issues.

Families separating over politics?
Pathetic. Though I don't walk in those shoes; separating over things like abuse, cheating, theft, etc... is totally understandable. |

If that was directed at me...you don't know me. Politics didn't separate us. It just didn't help anything.

You don't know me. If it was directed at you; you would have been quoted. The comment was made on the general subject of families separating over politics. Do you think there are no families doing exactly that, or that I haven't seen it first hand? Brothers, sisters, cousin, neighbors, mothers, fathers...and husbands and wives. I'll say it again: Families separating over politics? Pathetic. I'll even add: Seems real love would conquer any of that. |

Love my 80yo mom but she’s a CNN junky and ergo, severely misinformed. Now that Biden is in charge I get to blame her for anything and everything bad happening in the world. All in good fun, of course. Good times.

A majority of those people lived on or at the Mason-Dixon Line, and were told which side they fought on. Today; the media tells you who you should affiliate with, and opens a super-highway of hate based on political choice, morals, tolerance, religion, etc... to travel on. |

I'm the black sheep of the family both parents are life long dems.Watch the slanted view local (Boston) news.Think guns are evil...etc
But I would give anything to have a real conversation with my mom nowadays as she has dementia and its under control from meds but its not her anymore. And it sucks outloud. |

No no, you've got that wrong!! We have cancel culture which is removing all those hateful lessons of the past. It's making it just like those things never happened, so there are no lessons to be learned.
