I really think even outside of religious circles that’s the problem with the right. This obsession with “thinking is hard” mentalities. I can’t even send an article about something to some people, completely unrelated to politics, without being accused of being political because it has more words than a Facebook meme.
EDIT: I had to cut a conservative friend out of my life recently, and a month or two before that he literally shushed me at his house and told me I was being too political before immediately talking about guns for 30 minutes. My topic?
Busses and bike lanes. Just…give bikers a separated space instead of a sliver on the edge and that I ride the bus so it’d be pretty cool if that worked better.

It’s funny. I’ve had more republicans stop telling about stuff other republicans are doing…
… because it makes them uncomfortable.
Okay, but you know what makes more people uncomfortable? All this bullshit being done by a political party they vote for.
If that makes you uncomfortable… maybe don’t vote for them…
