"Have politics ever gotten in the way of a friendship/relationship 4 U?"

Folks really can't imagine having a homey who is a republican? An Ace who is pro-life? Boyfriend who thinks Bill Cosby is being framed?

Mugs in the other post questioning whether they should boycott Anthony Mackie movies because dude thinks dreads will hold you back.

I get someone may have views so abhorrent that you can't associate with them but to me that would have to be some pretty strong views that are indicative of you being a bad person.

Other than that is it really that serious?


Y'all really don't F with people cuz they got different views than you?

Or to put it another way, have you ever been like "Yo this person is so cool and I'd even date them but I can't get over their views on (Insert view that really doesn't have any bearing on your relationship)"?
