Was it me? I bet it was me. That's okay, though. I probably wouldn't vote for me either.

A friend of mine went on a date Sunday night. For some reason they started talking politics. This bitch ass cry baby mommas boy walks OUT on the date, WITHOUT paying for his drinks/food. Luckily my friend only had to pay for her stuff. I'll give you one guess what his political leanings were. These maga morons got no balls

Your friend dodged a bullet.

For your own safety you should really ask about their political ideology before meeting them. Make sure to not let them fool you either, never tell them yours first.

[–] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Wait, that's dumb. If all "good" people refused to tell their political leanings, and you're not going to meet someone who will not disclose it, you're kinda' just setting up a lonely life with those assinine rules...

You can sus people out other ways. The point is just to not let chameleons say whatever you said because they're horny.

Narrator: Neither of them voted.

[–] damnedfurry@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I know who I'm NOT voting for: anybody

Too soon… or too late time is a funny thing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Our friends husband teld her he voted Trump.

It was one big nail in the coffin of that marriage.

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 131 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Anyone who voted for trump deserves to get divorced. The lack of morals, the lack of basic human empathy is present in all trump voters.

Even in the best case scenario of a well-intentioned-but-ignorant person that didn't think critically about what a Trump vote meant, I still wouldn't want to be married to a fool.

You've gotta use your brain if you want to ride this train.

You can't use that excuse for the last election though.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 23 points 3 days ago

Nope. This time, everyone knew what voting for Trump meant, so they're either irredeemably evil or irredeemably stupid (or both).

[–] uniquethrowagay@feddit.org 32 points 3 days ago (3 children)

How would I not know the political views of my husband?

[–] burgerpocalyse@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago

there are entire departments at companies trying to turn people into insane conservatives

[–] homura1650@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago (6 children)

It's possible that his views were conflicted.

I have family whose politics I understand pretty well, and I don't know who they voted for. What I do know is that they were torn between: "Trump's blatant antisemitism is a danger to us here in America" and "Trump is good for Israel".

I'm glad I live in a place where this would give you almost no info.

Because there's more than two options.

I think a lot of us in the US have had this experience some time in the last 10 years. A work colleague or relative you don't know that well. People tend to avoid talking about politics directly, and often the euphemism (as seen here)bis ambiguous enough that it's a coin toss for what it actually means.
