some people just don't pop off enough to be on the radar. like i know just enough to know they're trumpers. Some i genuinely like as people, and i think it's just a matter of their own ignorance, background and environment (i know some lefties i'm pretty sure would be right wingers if they lived or grew up somewhere else) but there are also a couple i know i should cut loose because they're trash, but for whatever reason i dont

I started writing this long thing, but lets just say the ones i cut loose were people who really started showing their ass with Obama and let loose once Trump came along. In a couple cases I knew these people were more than just borderline racist, so i feel pretty ashamed for letting them stick around in my life even a little bit.

That's definitely a good rule

I wonder when and how this is possible, because i feel like it almost never comes from conversation but usually when something they're against hits them personally, or when they're own environment expands or changes. But i'd like to believe some people can be reached.
