[–] flossdaily@lemmy.world 7 points 3 years ago (1 child) I'm sorry that this cult has poisoned your dad. My best friend of 20+ years has also had the Trump lobotomy. You can reason people out of positions they didn't reason themselves into. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] KroninJ@lemmy.world 5 points 3 years ago On the plus side, I haven't had a great relationship with him my whole life. I've cut him off from my life several times and the only reason I started talking to him again was because he seemed different (from previous issues between us) at his dad's funeral. He has at least followed my stipulations I set if he wants to continue to talk to me. Sorry to hear about your best friend. Hopefully it's still one of those good relationships 'as long as politics don't come up' kind of thing. But that's a difficult one nowadays. permalink fedilink source parent
