To cut all MAGAt GARBAGE out of my life when possible, work obviously is an exception. I am already planning to not to go a family members house for Christmas Eve due to her brother and step son being rabid MAGAt's. She isn't at all in fact her sons and husband are quite liberal. But I just don't want to spend the holiday with a Nazi supporter. I am still considering it but I will likely tell her thats why I won't be there this year. I don't want unity I don't want to forgive and I don't want to associate at all with these people..

(5,151 posts)I was sort of "meh" about the advisability of what you propose, until I got to "I don't want unity." I realize this minute that I don't want unity, either, with anyone who do what they've done. I don't want to mend fences or any shit like that, and now I'm on board with your holiday plans.
Covid, happily, has excluded the MAGATs in our family for several years. No one is invited who has not been vaccinated. Poof! No MAGATs!

(69,532 posts)family feuds will continue. I wonder if the family dynamics would have been better if the other choice was successful. So, unfortunate.
Enjoy Thanksgiving and Christmas because who the hell knows what's to come next year.

(14,371 posts)I don't have any in my life that I know about. However, my dearest friend lives with her in-laws (her husband made the provision before he died and now she's stuck) and they are MAGAts. I try to get her away from them when I can, but there's only so much I can do.
