In reply to the discussion: My Former Fraternity Brother Posted on FB how fun it is to watch Lib heads explode [View all]3catwoman3
(29,341 posts)...when I was 8, and to whom I was close until my early 20s, rather shocked me a couple of years ago when I saw some of her Facebook posts dissing "libtards" and making vile comments about the Obamas. I suspect she has no idea that she is talking about me when she complains about libtards.
The last time we saw each other was at our HS 40th reunion, at which time I had not seen her FB posts. I've not responded to any of her public statements, and probably won't, not being particularly confrontational by nature. Many of my classmates have, and share her views.
The thought that keeps coming to mind, were I to respond, would be along the lines of, "How disappointing to learn that people I grew up with, and thought I knew, are such intolerant bigots." She is a "good Christian," of course.
I have looked forward to past reunions. Not so sure I even want to go to the 50th, which will be in 2019.
