One of the worst feuds I had with a loved one over politics was about Biden and Harris not ending the genocide in Palestine.
I’m still fucking fuming over that.
Not that this comment adds much of substance, but just for the sake of commiseration: same here! I still can’t forgive a close family member, a supposed “lefty” for refusing to admit that Biden/Harris were complicit in the genocide of Palestinians in the first place, and later when Trump (re)took office, that the Democrat admin had been just as complicit as Trump (let alone that the former are arguably more complicit when timing is considered). I had had arguments with this person in the past due to their Trump derangement syndrome, and just their thoughtless adherence to liberal children’s stories in general, but that one in particular caused lasting harm to the relationship and I will never look to them in the same way again.
