No, I completely understand the conflict. Some of my extended family/friends are decent people when they’re not talking politics but when they talk politics, they echo the same bs talking points that we try to refute. In fact, I saw one of them post something that we discussed yesterday- the Anderson Cooper photo and used it to attack the credibility of the media. Thank God my old best friend that I grew up with finally got tired of posting RW talking points on FB. It is too bad that he’s not on much at al all anymore because I’d love to catch up.

One of my sisters sent a message of support to a relative on FB who said he just married his husband right after that was legalized in WI, then messaged me to ask how he is related. He’s a cousin. Granted, we have over 30 cousins, so I can’t fault her for not keeping them all straight. What I do fault her for is supporting this guy she doesn’t know for his marriage, but making my father’s life hell (to the best of her ability) because she didn’t like who he married.
