I used to be able to separate people and their political beliefs. Not anymore though.

If a black man kneeling during the Anthem pisses you off. You are either willfully ignorant, or a racist.

If your first thought is that there are millions of women hiding in the rafter waiting for you to become famous so they can accuse you of sexual harassment. You are willfully ignorant, or a misogynist.

If you think a woman claiming attempted rape against Kavanaugh is somehow a con. You are willfully ignorant or a misogynistic traitor.

I could keep making more examples, but there is a pattern there. If we were friends, I would try and educate you on these issues so you wouldnt be willfully ignorant anymore.

So that means you fall into the other categories, and I just cant be friends with people like that anymore. I cant be quite anymore, and I wont.

It goes without saying that I've lost what I thought were good friends recently. It wasnt intentional, i played out my arguements in the real hope that they would be able to see what's going on.
