Question

If we have different views on like whether churches should be taxed or not then yea we could get along. If someone voted for trump tho I would assume we have incompatible values, morals, and worldviews.

For me it’s really more about “are you going to support me?” Meaning, do you support what I’m passionate about. I need my friends to be LGBTQ+ allies. Not just LGB or less. I have some friends who voted differently than me but not in that particular aspect. It’s crucial for accepting me and what I fight for.

I think this app is full of people who are unable to have a healthy debate or discussion. Instead of listening & processing with the mindset of educating themselves, they impose their views immaturely & ignorantly without much of an evidence based backing 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m a Pakistani married to an Indian, so those who know the almost century long politics of both countries will know that neutral ground is the only way forward for us 😂🫣🤭 Friendships are based on mutual respect, a meaningful connection & having a laugh for me anyway 🫶🏻

@Tiggy’s Mummy this. Love the way you explained it and can totally agree.

I’m “chill”, others are not

@Victoria interesting point. I guess you can slightly assume based on whom they voted for, but me personally I wouldn’t do that just based on whom they voted for.

@Cass what if they understand you but don’t agree with you?(hope this isn’t an overbearing question if so I’m sorry)

Personally im too loud in my beliefs that I don't get along woth those that I believe are harming others (human rights). Fundamentally we are incompatible if they dint believe all humans deserve life liberty and the pursuit of happiness

Hey everyone. I appreciate everyone’s vote and comment. I’m an independent voter and thinker. I use to be very liberal but since doing more research I have since become independent. I like to try to understand both sides of the main political parties. On this app I believe I’ve seen much hostility towards people whom vote differently. I think we should all be able to speak and be heard no matter whom you vote for. I ask for everyone to just listen and be respectful. Just because someone voted red or blue doesn’t depict who they are as a person. We are all moms and we should all be able to have respectful and knowledgeable conversations without name calling and assumptions on one’s character. Live long laugh or whatever it is.

@Kimberly I have some friends that have voted for Trump but none of those friends voted against gay rights or trans rights. I can’t vibe with people who can’t respect what I support so fully. I’ve been to rallies and prides since I was a preteen and so many of my friends are even farther into the community than I am. If a friend did vote against that, it’s not like it’s an immediate termination of friendship lol but I also haven’t found myself that deep into a friendship and then found out they don’t support me and my rights or my friends rights. I think there’s plenty of people to be friends with that do support me fully. So there’s no need to feel unsupported in a friendship

It depends on which type of friend we’re talking about. Are you a meetup and chat about kids only friend or are you my real friend who I can confide in and spend individual time with? My real friends and I are usually closely aligned with politics.

I used to try not to. I can get along with someone with different views. But those who ive been friends with who think differently have all eventually crashed out. So at this point i think it comes down to different moral foundations and im not interested in having friends on the opposite spectrum

I can be civil with those that have different beliefs but I couldn’t be besties with them. Their political views say a lot about their values, beliefs and way of thinking towards other aspects in life. We would likely disagree on many things and I’d be left having to ignore, swallow or agreeing to disagree for most of the relationship. I can usually tell if someone is a liberal or conservative voter within a few minutes of conversation.
