political stances were one of the first things H and i discussed when finding out about one another - then religion...
i think you can be friends with people who don't share the same core beliefs as yourself, even love them, but to live with them? that'd be too hard

I talk about it with certain friends and family mostly, and a handful here who are helpful and patient as fuck. It's ok to disagree. It's not that I'm scared to discuss politics, it's just finding the right person at the right time.

Killswitch, are you drunk?
No but I havent eaten yet and my blood sugars probably on the fritz.
I get pissy when I haven't eaten.

I don't believe I have ever heard a liberal or Democrat use the terms "off the reservation or on the plantation." Such terms are kinda steeped in racism which is why the Right likes to use them. The worst I've heard was Biden a few years back saying "They want to put you back in chains" and he DID catch the appropriate amount of flak for that incredibly stupid and bigotted statement.
As for tolerance and inclusion I really would love it Conservatives would stop equating not hating or punishing you (often with the law) for things you cannot fix. Redlinging housing to keep minorities out (which a bank just a few years ago was fined for doing because that shit still happens. And probably more than anybody wants to admit because it's hard to prove) of certain communities is wrong. Keeping gays from marrying is wrong. Taking away a woman's right to control her own body is wrong. There is a difference between hating someone for their race, sexual preference or to SOME extent their religion and calling people out for dumb behavior.
Maybe a Trump presidency won't be so bad. Maybe he doesn't appoint 3 judges and get rid of Roe v Wade. Maybe he doesn't shut down the EPA. Maybe he does.

No need to apologise. I won't be saddling anyone with anything. You can vote for the Steaming Pile Of Dicks Party and I'd be cool.

Why are you blaming women?
It was a shitty night, and we'll all end up being losers for it, but women don't hold any particular blame for it.

There is no voter's vote I love to cancel more than your vote.
Congratulations on the win, Mona.
You are the sexiest deplorable ever.

I get it.
A simple Aquagirl and Fata are hot will suffice.
Nope, we're not all going to saddle Hillary's loss on Aqua, Mona and whoever. Deal.

I've always thought Yanks act very histrionically when it comes to politics. We really only reach that level of vitriol over tea matters.

They don't call us "yanks" for nuthin', ma'am.

Just watched a special election edition of The Last Leg and they've had a band of Mexicans on singing Wonderwall.
