The rest is how they think we should all get there. And yes, each side claims the other side is harmful and damaging. But if you try to keep an open mind and actually listen to the "whys" of people's arguments, you'll find that the best solutions take both sides into account. We haven't done much of that in the past 20 years; I get it. And that's why we are all a mess.

Please start listening to people with different view points. Not the catch phrases everyone repeats, but why those catch phrases matter to people.

Yeeeaaaa.NO.

My BIL thinks kids are being sold in the basement of a pizza parlor in DC.

My uncle thinks the “libs” paid a company to change votes.

My friends H believes Obama is an agent for a foreign country.

My friend thinks the Democrats are going to seize all small businesses and have the govt run them.


Yea…. So NO

So…. NO

Don't ask about politicians. Ask about policies.

I don’t ask them anything. They feel compelled to “just let me know”.

Also seizing small businesses is a policy they think Dems will enforce.

Other policies … they think women should carry babies with no heart/lungs full term at let it die upon birth, they think that gay people should not marry/adopt/or go to church.

One family member told me people with PTSD should not receive treatment because you can’t fix weakness.

One calls my adopted niece that China baby. We call her Lauren.

So ask them why they are against abortion. what is their goal? if it’s the sanctity of life,
ask them if there are other ways to reduce or prevent abortion other than legislating what women can do with their bodies. talk about sex ed and birth control and wrap around services and true universal health care. make them think a bit about the whys instead of taking the easy way out of their side’s talking points. Both of you might learn something.

Yea I said, then why did Trump slash $200M from the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program which prevents abortions.

They either say “I don’t know anything about that, did you hear that on one of your liberal media shows” or they say “good, if your old enough to have sex your old enough to pay for a baby, they need to grow up not get handouts”. (Even though the plan helps them get an education and jobs so they don’t end up on welfare)

These are college educated people.

Harass their children and then scream racist and try to get them fired seems to be the answer du jour. Democracy and all.

Exactly what must be floating around the minds of the conservatives living in an alternate reality. They are some kind of martyr in their fantasy land.

I must be a liberal.

People can think they’re funnier than they are on both sides of the aisle.

I didn’t laugh because I don’t know what a towel charm is. I’m conservative FWIW.

I don’t get it either. Can some one explain? I’ve been a Democrat but will vote R locally from now on FWIW.

Karen Pence had a “towel charm” business.

It's a little metal charm you thread through a towel to mark that it's yours. Not the dumbest thing rich people spend money on, but still pretty silly.

Aren’t the people who have been fired actual racists caught on camera?

It’s just charms you put on a towel so nobody steals your towel. You say “it’s mine because look, my charm is the Rainbow. Oh no the rainbows Mike’s”

+1 this is me exactly

I only discuss politics with conservative friends/family.

+ 1

Actually, what you are hearing here is that liberals have become so intolerant of other views that tipping one’s hand to a conservative viewpoint could cost a job, play dates, whatever. The new mcarthyism. Agree with me or you’ll be labeled a racist and lose everything.

Exactly right. Most of us still need a way to pay the mortgage so we stay mum to keep a job.

I still don't get it. Don't they have enough towels for everyone? So what if your husband takes a towel, can't you just get another?

No it’s not Liberals causing conservatives to lose jobs.

That’s ridiculous.

Choice that’s what Trumper’s want right? Well get vaccinated that’s your choice period. You lose you job well that’s on you,

I’m tired of this narrative it’s absurd.

Hello Polio want to come back to life? Conservatives think mandatory vaccines are bad.

Book banners haha conservatives

Conservatives screaming censorship sure do like to post online and on getter seem to be very unhappy that others have a different point of view. Can not make this garbage up.

Dang, honey, you need some friends like you. I’m putting up a Youngkin sign just so my people can find me.

Good for you!! You are my people. And, yes, I need to transition my children to a setting where they won’t be bullied or harassed for my political leanings.

PP, looks like you’ve found your people. Count me in!

What if he uses your towel and gets his germs on it?
