I was dating hot and heavy in 2020-2023, on several dating sites. Women either said they weren’t political or not interested. That’s a big, fat flag, “If you’re Republican, STFU about it.” Others simply stated that MAGA need not apply.
I was talking to a potential date (who turned out great!) and joked that I was something of a redneck.
“Uh… exactly how redneck?”
“I loathe Trump if that’s what you’re asking.”
“OK. Whew. Thanks, just had to check.”
And this was in NW Florida, about as conservative an area as it gets. There were very few women openly looking for conservative men, and I only remember a single MAGA nut.
Related note; I can’t tell you how many women I met, including my wife, who said they would go on a date and the man would start going off about Trump bullshit. Imagine that. On a first date.
I post on a message board that has absolutely nothing to do with politics. Of course, there are always topics that come up that someone has a political opinion about, so occasionally the board devolves into some political bickering.
However, at some point, I realized every time one of the posts became political it was because a conservative brought politics into it. I thought maybe it was just my bias and overlooked it when it was a leftwing/liberal. . .but nope, every time I noticed it getting political from there on out, it was always, without a doubt, a conservative who had to bring their politics into it.

I find that the magabrainz will even start up with that shit on an elevator if they can. If you think of con memes as a brainworm from another planet that is seeking to infect the entire human race, it makes a lot more sense…they seek to spread that shit in nearly every interaction, even with people they have just met. Invasion of the Body Snatchers was supposedly about the red scare, but I find it far more like the way the redcoats behave…

Better the first date than 6 months in.
I wish they’d all fucking vote…
You really went turbo mode with that dating, huh
