(6,560 posts)they hate even Americans in their own families. I cannot believe the hatred being express by some of my family members. I cannot believe that relatively intelligent people refuse to see what is before their eyes. And, yes, I have a family member or two who has said to my face that I need to suck it up and enjoy the ride that they had to do during the Obama years. Could not believe that these people I grew up with were that racist. They do this out of evangelical cultism and racism, and don't leave out just plain nastiness. I am heartbroken. Out of my family of 6, my youngest brother, my Mom (who passed away 6 months ago) and I were "liberals" and deserved to be hated and reviled for our beliefs. My sister, my middle brother, and my oldest brother (who passed away 4 months ago) are Republicans. Those brothers were not zealots, also not evangelicals. My sister is a cultist in her religion and in her politics.
