Me but I'm a communist living in Poland and even suggesting abortion rights gives you side eyes. :^)
I love this place
spoiler
I really don't.
Yeah, I wanted to visit my grandpa's home country, but I guess there's a reason he left after fighting the nazis.
i've developed some really negative feelings towards eastern european ex-pats due to how many of them are bigoted fascists
why the fuck does anyone hate gay people its so fucking stupid and i hate that this tiny group of people has to suffer for literally no reason and deal with the most 'im not a traumatized small minded person' douchebags ever. let gay people be gay ffs
Why is it like that? I know two "ex-pats" from serbia that are exactly like that.
Left-wing people don't tend to emigrate to USA.
Not weird at all, this is an extremely common marriage dynamic. Many people especially from earlier generations (genx and older) took a very apolitical stance when it came to finding a partner. Some of it is the privilege they enjoy where politics doesn’t directly affect them, some of it is the submissive wife trope where her sociopolitical opinions aren’t important and she is just expected to fall in line behind the man.
There was a whole thing when I was younger about celebrity couples where one was a democrat and the other was a republican, and the message was “see they can make it work”.
Leaving out just how closely aligned their politics actually are given their class position, the political party is just window dressing.
Yea, I definitely remember that. It was a whole gotcha moment that I didn’t realize until much much later was just propaganda.
Also a lot of "cant have sex out of wedlock or else maw maw gets big mad" and these guys have no clue how to use birth control so they can't even pretend to be celibate when their partner ends up pregnant.
You know someone is proud of their views when they hide those views from their partner
Yeah that's what stood out to me: the relationship didn't fail because you have different political views, it failed because it was built on deceit!
I don't think they'll ever be able to comprehend that.
removed wife bad.
Edit: Haha Word was a nationalist Feminist that men hate.
lying about your conservative politics to date women should count as some kind of assault
they wouldn't have married you if they knew you didn't see them as people (i know some would, but shhh)
Conservative Panic Defense, where women don't get charged with murder if they killed a guy after finding out he's a rightwinger
Sad Men circlejerking
Lol fuckin losers
Yeah I was getting a lot of gay poly vibes from that post.
E: typo
My partner is an intelligent well-meaning liberal (in comparison to me, a terrible, ill-hearted Leninist).
Political violence is our only major disagreement.
She isn't a fan of the fact that if I ever get a terminal disease then it might be for me.
If anything this indicates just how low cishet womens standards are in amerika.
The bar is in hell and all of society expects women to be subservient and accept constant abuse. It's nearly impossible to live alone unless you're rich and many give in to have a small amount of financial comfort
i just said this the other day but it's either that or they die alone
I'm a Stalin and Mao loving tankie who has happily been in a relationship with an anarchist for almost 2 years. I guess the left just does relationships better.
ML and anarchist at least share the same values. Democrats and republican, even though they are both shitlibs, are doomed to annoy each other all the time.
Constantly innovating brave new ways to be diverse. (that was supposed to be divorced)
My partner and I started out with similar politics but have gradually stopped talking about it as I've veered leftward. She wasn't super interested in hearing about the case for voting uncommitted in the primary. I've been wondering about the long term implications but feel like she might be receptive to communism after this shit show of an election
Don't just spring it on her. Gotta get her with good communist propaganda. Watch Damnation, any thing by Boots Riley, then Parenti and Chill.
I only know how to translate a little bit of Chud, but I think Sean wants to fuck the guy he’s replying to.
What's more pathetic, guys like this going on twitter to brag about their wives leaving them because they are red-pilled, or guys who attend male "boot camps" to get into shape so their wife will come back and let them see the kids?
I was gonna bully cisgender heterosexuals here but tbh I'm a fan of these Miserable Liberal Wives ditching their Republican Outlaw Warrior failhusbands. Lmao.
Maybe they can all join a commune and just love and support eachother instead!
A guy I work with just told me yesterday that his wife left him because he chose to work on the Obama campaign and declined to help get Hillary elected instead. The divorce process just started about 6 months ago. I feel like there is a ton more to the story for each one of these guys.
1,000%
I couldn't imagine trying to date someone (let alone marry lol) that wouldn't say death to the west with me
i love the energy behind saying "dear john (break up) letter" like it's very "just according to keikaku (keikaku means plan)"
At this point I'm viewing it as a clinical study in the progression of fascism symptoms in the individual. Ah yes, 100% of subjects are approaching the Divorce Threshold, past which recovery chances drop to single digits.
