[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Politics should be a private matter. I really do not understand why people expect all of their friends to hold exactly the same views as them.

The funniest thing is that some of the people who are most vocal about their politics (while denigrating other points of view), love diversity as a concept. Can no one see the irony? What is wrong with differing political views anyway? Does it really scare you so much to have a Trump voter next door?![/quote]

I would love to tell all my friends who are Democrats that I am a Republican. Friends who like and respect me and think (and have said) I am a great mother, fun friend, upstanding citizen, selfless volunteer of my time....they would be shocked that they think so well of a Republican. Thing is, they would cease having any positive regard for me if I did and many have explicitly said so. Not to me specifically, but in general or on FB. I like and respect them, too, even though we don't share the same political views and I can't fathom turning on them for being a Democrat. It's not worth it to me. I'm not a diehard political type and I'm not willing to sacrifice friendships over politics. I will admit, though, that I can't help but judge them for having such a black and white view of the world.  [/quote]
