If he wasn't interested in dating left-leaning women, this was the red flag.

baw didn't say a word about dating, he said he was "on the hunt"

Politics was more important than getting laid to him.

that's why I said rookie, if you're out there running game you sometimes have to be a chameleon for the evening, hit it and quit it

My boy’s “church” preschool on Emory’s campus had BLM banners in front of their buildings and sent us some “how to teach your kids not to be racist” propaganda. I told them to cram it (nicely), then we escaped Atlanta for rural Upstate SC. No woke up in these hills.

Dating, hooking up, whatever you want to call it. Politics was more important than getting laid to him.

I didn’t say it was more important.

I said I wasn’t going to sit there and argue about politics at The Bulldog with some random chick who I just met through Tinder and was trying to frick. I didn’t even know the bitch and I couldn’t have cared less what her political opinions were that night or ever.

They’re not the same thing. Don’t conflate the 2.

And to the poster who said TFA should’ve been my red flag, I know that now. I’ve met several people who’ve done TFA and they’re all the same.

I could see that, but I really wasn’t that desperate to get laid. I was a Veteran in the best shape of my life, getting my GI Bill benefits. It wasn’t an uncommon thing.

Yep, my sister is extremely woke. I normally just soft block her on FB so I don't get irritated as it's constant posts. As far as work, I've been seeing in my career that people have been parading around stuff that, to me, doesn't matter. ESG is stupid important in the investment world, so I guess that has affected me too.

Used to be a regular weekly shopper at Target. They had the stuff that I wanted at MUCH better prices than other stores.

Walked in a few years ago; I guess it was pride month; because just inside the entrance was a big gay pride display, including mannequins with gay pride T-shirts.

Including, most egregiously, a small child mannequin wearing a t-shirt with the rainbow or multicolor flag with the motto "My First Pride T-Shirt".

Turned around, walked out, and have never stepped foot in or spent a dollar at a Target since.

Some people have principles.

i have principles, but a short memory

i can't even remember which razor company made that awful commercial a couple years ago

The bigger test arguably is when this country becomes predominantly POC 20 years from now.

Yea. How will you react when Hispanics are the majority and they hate your guts? You're going to be in quite the conundrum on who to blame for everything

POC may as well be the majority now when it comes to getting hired/promoted faster, scholarships, grants, small business set asides, etc., every advantage to succeed they could possibly have yet they still bitch about, oppression, lack of representation, blah, blah, blah
