My brother was in an uproar over some posts I made on FB about covid. His anger screamed out from the screen. My last comment to him was, "Wow, I thought you would be happy seeing how well the country is doing now that Biden is President!", after which he "un-friended" and blocked me. He had done it before, prior to the election, but seemed to have calmed down. Covid has brought out the best in people :)
I'm sorry to hear this....although I've had the exact same experience with my older sister, who unfriended me on FB months ago when I had the audacity to call out her and her friends' hypocrisy on Saint Ruth Ginsburg. I didn't care about the social media part...but when she and her husband stopped talking to us over the election and the stupid virus crap, that was too much. They haven't been to visit in over two years, primarily due to the fact that they're vaxxed and we're not. I love her...she was a better mother to me than our own mother...but I can't enable this behavior and mindset anymore. And so I harden my heart about this a little more each day.
I hope all the truth comes out loud and clear soon, and that it will finally wake up all these stubborn people, but I have a feeling they'll just say the truth is more "right wing conspiracy theory".
I'm sorry. Maybe I should try that. I'm so annoyed by hearing my brother parrot the MSM points but I feel I have to listen because I know how lonely he must be. It's like my duty to family now that our parents are gone & all. I assume he would get it by my dead silence but he keeps parroting away until I have to go for some reason. Of course other times we talk about the distant past & stuff which is nice.
