Are Republicans getting paranoid already?

Asked by Dutchess_III (47054points) 3 hours ago

I have a neighbor across the street is a republican. We get along….have never discussed politics. Over the last couple years we pretty much sussed it out tho.
Today there have been many memes expressing shock and dispare.
My neighbor posted “I stand behind my vote! If anyone doesn’t like it they can unfriend me!!”
How would anyone know who she voted for unless she went about telling them?
PS yesterday she posted a selfie with her uber redneck husband,with the comment “We got our job done!”
I commented “We’ll done!!”

I have FB friends who will post their opinion and say if anybody doesn’t like it, they can unfriend them. I ignore it. I ignore most of what is on social media. I might “like” it if I’m not opposed to it, but otherwise I ignore it.

Sounds like exactly the type of stuff I avoid such social media for, in the first place…

^To me, Trump winning is proof positive there is no heaven, or God.

Don’t forget free will @MrGrimm888! That catchall they use to “explain” anything they can’t.

I appreciate these posts.
I unfriend them.

I don’t think they are getting paranoid; I’m worried they will get vengeance with their Dem neighbors and Trump with the European countries.

@MrGrimm888 Nah, I see it as proof that we are in hell. So, I’m still holding out for heaven. But now I plan to move to Costa Rica. It may take a few months but I’m leaving unless Dumbo catches a heart attack.

I just saw a similar post on my facebook.

Also this: Wellllll… the people have spoken. Overwhelming, landslide victory for President Donald J Trump. Now, let’s stop insulting each other, let’s be civilized, and let’s try not to burn down cities. God Bless America.

I “unfollow” friends and relatives on FB that go deep into politics. I get them from both sides. It just makes their B.S. not show up in my feed.
