Around the bend

That former coworker/friend that claimed to be a Bernie supporter but is now 100% crackpot right-wing, KILLARY-spouting nutball (dude, you were never a true Bernie supporter if you've done that freaky 180), continues to come closer to licking the boots of the alt-right. When he thanked some of his all-caps screaming Trumpster friends for ganging up on me when I was being respectful in online debate, I decided there was no way whatsoever I was going to make any comments or remarks on his political posts (or the idiotic ones growling that them thar brown people better STAND for teh ANTHEM or they're not UHMERICANS)

His wife decided to venture onto one of my posts to debate Hillary on an article I shared about how the media is hyperfocused on her health. I was fair and respectful, as were others that commented (caseytalk, thank you - that was so enlightening to find out the details about C/S/TS levels in email conversation). His wife was reasonable but exercised the tactic of when she was proven wrong on a point, would go off on a completely different tangent.

Anyway, I had to resist posting a remark like *SPORFLE* on this picture that the former coworker posted last evening

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That is quite possibly the most absurd, most ridiculous representation of Cheeto Jesus I've seen (oh and don't think I didn't notice that he was also photoshopped to almost look like a human color)

Former coworker is posting links to right wing sites like infowars and actually extolled the virtues of that conspiracy-theorist, Sandy Hook and 9/11 denier nutball Alex Jones. Yeah, he's pretty much gone fully to the Dark Side. Crazy.

I unfollowed the friend and will ponder re-following him once election season is over...if he seems reasonable again.

I also told my Dad that I'd really like to stop playing his game of "Make Diane Defend Hillary" because it's tedious. He doesn't want to vote for either one of them but continues to dig up things to try to make me dispute it. It makes my head hurt.

Oh, I feel the same way. I'm pretty damn sick of politics right now. I know who I'm voting for and if the rest of the country votes that fucker T into office, well, they'll get the government they deserve while the rest of us suffer right along.

I'm still convinced that if enough people vote, we'll be okay, but I swear, watching the news is damn depressing.
