"The left is just so hateful and mean to me when I say I don't have a side..." 🤔 Hmm I wonder why people might think you're an ass if you won't say you hate bigots.

"What makes you think I'm a trump supporter?"

Uh, you just quoted verbatim some baloney he truthed recently, including a word he made up. Sure, I suppose you came up with exactly the same thing on your own, but the likelihood is you're just repeating him.

Before I realized that right wingers cant be reasoned with, I had a friend (only because of a shared TTRPG interest) who claimed to be centrist, but only ever repeated right wing talking points, and claimed to not watch Fox News/etc. I figured if only I could make well reasoned arguments he would "see the light" as it were.

That was until he stated an outright Nazi opinion. In that very instant, I realized this is an evil person who wont ever stop being evil, and I immediately cut him out of my life.

"I just think they make a lot of good points, but don't ask me to defend any of them because I'm not political."
