I think it’s brilliant that people publicise their political affiliations - it’s like a big red flag to either avoid certain topics… or just avoid them altogether.
Last time I was on the dating market some of these people popped up on the dating app. Holy hell and it were always the maniacs that had to make their dumbassery public.
My favourite was that young lady who was extremely anti vax and tried to make it a “my body my choice” kind of thing. Everything read like she died on that hill a couple of times already.
That’s something that often occurred to me when I saw some antima/antiva Karen during Peak Covid - I felt sorry for anyone that was their SO, most especially if they were married to them, assuming they weren’t down for that level of crazy.
It’s not a difficult thing to sniff out. You just have to mention something innocuous like toilet paper and suddenly you’ll know more or less which side of center that person is on.
Ever since donnie it became something almost impossible to avoid finding out. Most redhats would out themselves pretty quickly. And then Covid happened, and with things like masks and vaccines, the crazies found it nearly impossible to hide themselves…I’m sure there are still a few being quiet, but I think once the fauxbrain really takes hold, they seem to find it impossible to NOT broadcast their assholery.
I never swiped right on a lady firing a gun. Or taking a picture in the mirror of a public bathroom. Not the same thing. I just remembered the second one as I mentioned the first.
It’s kind of like that stupid red hat the gomers like to wear (when they feel they can - I notice a lot of them don’t wear it all the time, though - imagine that. It’s almost like they know what that hat really means to normal Americans.)
When I see someone wearing that, now I know it’s someone I can just skip over. It’s like wearing a “do not talk to me” shirt.

It’s like Social Interaction for Dummies.

Good to start with the important questions: Toilet paper! Facing inwards or outwards?
