Question for both sides, Left and Right

[Baretta19]

2 cousins I was very close with as a kid because we are the same age and we remained close until 2016, when they said "Trump supporters are racist" at which time I used liberal logic on them and simply stated "If that's true then I have to assume and apply the same wide brush that all Democrats/liberals must be pedophiles" I have not spoken to them in 4 years.

Bhoddhi...work is also the only reason we remain in the region.  We love our property, but lately, even my husband has talked about selling and moving. 

Luckily, we are not near Seattle proper, but we can smell the stench and the failures of leadership are borderline treasonous.  Have you seen Seattle is Dying by Eric Johnson?  Visit the FB page Seattle looks like Shit or Tacoma looks like trash.  The whole region is getting worse by the day.  Even Everett is a pig sty.  They recently shut down the Everett Gospel men's shelter due to covid and it has had an even greater impact than they could have imagined. 

I am so done with Seattle.  We no longer recommend it to friends or family and we haven't gone into town in at least 3 years.  My heart breaks for all the former beauty and the history downtown...graffiti ed and blighted.  And all Kshama Sawant and Jenny Durkan see are opportunities to kill business by trying to strangle them with their tax plans.

Takncare, yup..

same here.  My cousin from my home country has had to post pone his trip several times due to Covid. 

he was planning on coming up here to seattle, and he's wondering if it's safe.  and I have to tell him the truth...Seattle, not so much.  granted, the PNW is beatiful and there is so much natural beauty here like in the moutains and parks we have...but Seattle, especially all the touristy areas have become a shit hole

We don't maintain close friendships with anyone that is not Republican/Conservation (aka, Normal), PERIOD.

The others merely get a smile and a quick "Hi, how are you. Have a nice day. Bye".

We have no time for Dems/Libs/Homos/Commies/Leftists/Socialists/Climate-alarmists/Enviro-wackos/Girlie-men/atheists/Weirdos!!!!

We spend our time with only Normal People!!!!

Zsq-

I'm friends with a lot of people as I"m a social person..

but sometimes when I'm in a circle and politics emerges...I end up being the odd man out.  and truth be told, I'm not even a far right convervative.

I jsut can't get on board with excusing rioting/looting, attacking police officers, and pushing forward these ridiculous narratives about how terrible this country and how black peopel are being "slaughtered in the streets" by police and white people.

Dan’s troll’n hard.

Black people being "slaughtered on the street"? ? ? ? ? ?

Maybe a handful have been killed, usually after resisting arrest and/or not complying with a Police order.

But, very few by Police compared to the thousands killed by fellow Blacks.

Sounds like your Lib "Friends" are brainwashing you.

DUH!!!

Zsq, Anchor and other Conservative brethren..

there are some topics where I believe a conversation is warranted and I can see "both sides."

1)  gay rights
2)  abortion rights
3)  Climate Change
4)  racial injustice.


but here in Seattle...things have taken a drastic change to the faaaaaaaaaaaaarrr  left.

like "All cops are bastard."

"Abolish the police."

"white people are inherently racist"

"only white people can be racist.."

and this accentuation on victim hood.

WWV-

NO I Don't believe that all..

I was just pointing out some of hte absurd things Im hearing lately. 

[Jw2]

well bod...the right wing reaction to the clearly illegal activities of the Trump administration is..."so what?"

Trump is a pathological liar - over 20,000 public lies big and small since taking office according to WaPo..."so what?"

Trump insults Gold Star Families..."so what?"

Trump is a racist..."so what?"

Trump is not really "pro-life", he just oversaw the first federal executions in 17 years..."so what"

Right wingers are taking their public health lead from a guy who had unprotected extramarital sex with a porn star..."so what?"

Trump tells the world that maybe injecting toxic disinfectants or shoving UV lights up your butt to fight Covid-19..."so what?"

Trump said the Covid-19 virus would just fade away - multiple times. 

and you don't find right wingers aren't anti-American cultists?
