List the ways people you know have made their lives more complicated just to prove a point

I cut myself off from some toxic relationships just to prove I didn't need them.


Turns out I actually didn't need them.

Not sure if you actually know what fascism is buddy.

I know a girl who will destroy every relationship she has to prove to herself that she’s a victim. I bet you know a girl like this too.

I once had a trans person help me at a nordstrom rack and they were very short and rude to my wife (no pics) and I. My wife (still no pics) killed They/Them with kindness and They/Them eventually eased up a bit. once calmer I asked about what made them be so short with us to start, did they have a bad morning, etc. They/Them told me that people cause issues with They/Them every day because "most people are transphobic." I put it in kinder terms but I made sure to tell They/Them that they have run ins with people everyday because they act like an a-hole. People are rude to They/Them because their actions not because of their appearance.

I don't think it sank in and They/Them probably still has altercations with "bigots" daily when the reality of the situation is people take issue with the fact that They treat people like shite, not that they are confused about what's between their legs.

Hmmm reminds me of how we just had an election where people voted for literally fascism just to “own the libs”

Ok I'll play along.

I'm a white male so fascism doesn't complicate my life, and I still owned the libs.

A guy that has lived in the woods for 8 years to spite his brother for selling a trailer he was living in. Real story

Can't think of any. But I have a family member who thinks just because he gets paid cash for work he doesn't have to file his taxes

Well...

He's apparently right.

Yea, like the fascist Democrat administrations that use government agencies, an aligned MSM and liberal tech companies to go after their political opponents?

Yes, the ones that also want to censor speech, didn't hold a primary to keep voters from messing with their plans (I mean how would voters know whats best for them?), tried to remove their political opponents from the ballot in a bunch of states, and are beholden to the war machine.

Also GurleyGirl is a top notch punny username.

Anything with politics and family.

There's no positive of trying to rub political wins into family members faces. Or vice versa, lashing out at family members because of political losses.

Family should transcend politics.
