Total Politically Opposite Friends?

Question

Do you have friends that are the total opposite of you politically speaking?

Ben · Accepted Answer

Yep... I am friends with people because of who they are, not what they have been told they are. Almost all of us want the same thing, we have just been told different ways of getting there. I don't care what colour tie you wear, if you look after your family and friends you're good in my books.

Ryan · Answer

I have had a friend or two like that. You just have to be careful about certain topic besides that the can decent friends

Brayan · Answer

I used to, but I don't talk with them anymore. They were my friends throughout all school and highschool, but I realized they stood at opposition to my values, and I learned that I don't have to be friends with racists.

If you let politics divide your friendships, you're probably part of the problem lol my opinion, troll me over it. Idc

Ebel · Answer

I feel polically distant from everyone, all of it seems like a mask and ruse for control. No way I trust in benevolence and integrity, from any politician. Heavy philosophical discussions are disguised and used as weapons for keeping minds placed in certain boxes. I know there are tons of real issues, but everything about politics is witnessed corruption to me.

Joachim · Answer

Most of them are.

Michelle · Answer

Yeah.I can’t really call them friends tho…they’re just my classmates.Yeah, i talk to them, sometimes we have fun, but that’s all.They don’t know anything about me , even tho It may seem like they do.The most “surface level” things is probably the only part of me i showed them.Anyways, back to the actual question, i just wanted to clarify that technically the answer would be No, because i don’t have any REAL friends which would politically disagree with me, but if we take these school “friends” into consideration, then the answer would be Yes.

Alfred · Answer

Of course haha and I love them to death we all know that at the end of the day we're all friends and we can disagree on certain things like politics, movies etc and still be friends

Matt · Answer

Yeah, both sides need to be mature about it and realize politics is only one aspect of life. Sort of petty to ruin a golden friendship over one thing

Claude · Answer

Ya I did but she randomly ghosted me after a year of friendship

Jakey · Answer

Definitely! The trick is to not engage in any political squabble at all since people tend to divide themsleves without giving anyone a fair chance. We're not our political opinions and it'd be a waste to not getting to know a life-long friend just because one or the other might've been raised or manupulated to believe a certain way.
