(6,991 posts)4 friends I have used to be very passionate, yet right-minded Bernie supporters. 3 of those friends are now Biden supporters, and one of them is a staunch Bernie supporter. I still meet up with and interact with the 3 Biden supporters. The final friend who used to be a right-minded Bernie supporter now has become a Bernie sycophant. So much so that she's totally segregated herself from the 4 of us, and she's blocked us on twitter as well within the past few years because we won't support Bernie to the point that she does. She's also hooked up with Bernie supporters of her stripe near where she lives and on twitter who are bullies/stalkers/rude/crude to others on twitter as well. Her own daughter told me. The daughter is also extremely worried about her Mom and the amount of monies she sends to support Bernie's campaign for the presidency.
Now into our mid-late 50's, we all used to go shopping together, we were there for her when relatives/her parents/husband passed along the way. We were invited to and enjoyed her daughter's beautiful wedding in 2010. We'd all come together and eat elaborate vegan dishes I'd prepare on many a Saturday night, and we all voted for Hillary in the 2016 GE. But like I said, the past 2.5 or so years, we've noticed that our 'buddy's' was becoming increasingly angry, disagreeable, loud, rude to us, unyielding, always stating that the establishment is destroying this country, and that anyone supporting the criminal Democrat establishment is no better than the GOP
We could no longer stomach her bile/rudeness (Or her saying that word Democrat), so the 3 of us cut her from our lives. I sent her a Christmas Card the year before last but heard nothing from her, and up to that point we'd exchanged cards/gifts for various occasions for almost 15 years.
The 3 of us wonder where our 'old' friend went, and if we'll ever see her again.
Probably not.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
