People who enjoy it when others are unhappy bother me so much.
I don’t enjoy it when Republicans are unhappy. Sometimes I think they deserve to be unhappy, but I do not enjoy it.
Every Thanksgiving.
I’ve been going strong since 2016. There will never be room for MAGA at my dinner table.
Friendsgiving is a great replacement it’s been great and now one cheats at boardgames as a plus
Just had ours. It was great
I’m not going to Thanksgiving this year. I’d rather celebrate with my cats than my crazy family
Me too. Are you telling them why? I’m leaning towards cutting them all off, going full no contact, saying exactly why, and moving to either a blue state or out of the country for a while (which I have the means to do).
I normally find some stupid excuse to get out of family gatherings, but this will probably be the year I tell them directly.
I’m really torn because overall my family and I have decent relations and they aren’t the totally fucking insane Maga types. But I’m so incredibly disgusted, ashamed, and terrified, I can’t just go over and pretend everything is normal. We are so far past politics as usual and the ebbs and flows of power/control. So idk what to do. I’m probably going to skip and stay home and order a pizza and smoke all day and watch LOTR or something, just can’t take this shit anymore idk
I’ll be the one dining amongst the reds this year. Most of my family is content with just casual bigotry, but my brother is more outspoken and knows how to push my buttons (obviously, he’s the youngest). My plan is to get drunk, quickly, so that I don’t feel any guilt or shame about speaking my mind right back at him.
No-thanks giving™
Trump won the popular vote.
We’re the ones that are not invited.
Friendsgiving is the better holiday anyway
This comic is nonsensical.
Republicans hold family ties as a tenant of their political ideology.
Democrats are fine with telling every family member they have to fuck off and die over political differences. They also love to self flagellate because “Thanksgiving is fucking evil!!”
It’s absolutely insufferable Democrats that would not be attending Thanksgiving.

“My MAGA second family, as much as I’m embarrassed to admit this, oftentimes took precedence over my actual blood family,” he said. Looking back, he said his immersion in the world of MAGA strained relationships, including in his family.
Also, are these family tenants why conservatives readily kick their gay kids out of the house? I met a few of them as a volunteer back in the day.

Similarly, all the people I know who went no contact with their conservative family members were due to abuse.
Face it, conservatives of all ages are hostile towards anyone who doesn’t follow their ideals. They dominate online harassment and death threats over political differences, pushing their ideology to exterminate a good portion of those they don’t like. Calling for a second civil war and WWII-style concentration camps doesn’t spell out peaceful family members if you ask me.
Blaming liberals for what conservatives perpetrate is clutching pearls.
This made my brain dumb for about 15 seconds trying to understand, especially the last line.
Family is more than just sharing the same dna. Family is being supportive and understanding of each other… and if certain members want to demonize people for being different, then they arent being very supportive or understanding.
