Yea, I've learned to distrust leftist/liberal types. They're all smiles and friendly, but once they start asking questions about how you vote or what you think of things like abortion it's best to gradually wean off the association with them. They're the most intolerant, toxic bunch out there and are obnoxiously aggressive with their views. After all, that's what liberalism is - pushing your views and lifestyle onto others.
It's best to be wary of people who make a big show of being conservative too. They may be undercover feds or just loud mouth show-offs who want attention. They don't have a solid foundation for their opinions and will be easily swayed by fads and media. They are most likely to support "our greatest ally".
Like the guys that go on and on about 'goddamn homos', they are all self-hating closet queens like the Marine in 'American Beauty'
I have mixed feelings about that movie. When I was in early 20s I loved it, it made slacking off rebellious and cool.
It wasn't until much later that I came to view it as a typical Hollywood hit piece on white American domestic life and conservative values, especially the part about the openly bigoted man being a closet homo.
In the end it made me think, and that is why we enjoy provocative art, usually. I recently came across my DVD copy of the movie while rummaging through my old belongings and decided to throw it away.
Agreed, there are suspicious and untrustworthy people on both/all sides.
But I just meant that when it comes to 'normie libs' vs 'normie cons', the cons are generally more pleasant, respectful, and modest whereas libs are just insufferably in-your-face with their so-called progressive views.
Cons are more likely to keep to themselves when speaking with people whose views they don't know about. More content to chit chat and talk about things like weather. Libs just go straight to Drumpf to strike up conversation, because they need to know who is a 'nazi'.
That is true where I live because it's a very liberal area. Conservatives have to be discreet if they want to be left alone. Libs just assume everyone around them is another lib and they compete to be more radical than then next guy. They seem to believe that conservatives wear Nazi armbands and carry AR-15 at all times.
