Guilty by association

[alex_antonin]

Just as I judge the people on my friendslist for signs of stupidity such as anti-vaxxer, anti-science, conservative, or bigoted beliefs, so too do I judge the people my friends have as their friends. If I see stupid people or bigots on your friendslist, I think less of you for tolerating them in your life. I won't unfriend you over it, probably, but know that I'm side-eyeing you, keeping a closer eye on you, and wondering why someone supposedly intelligent would tolerate such nonsense in their friends and associates. Because I for one have zero tolerance for anti-science idiots and/or bigots. To the point that I stopped talking to my own mother over her anti-mask BS that she wouldn't shut up about.

For us, kit would be because we had no idea of the stupidity, because it rarely (if ever) would happen around us.

But when we find out, there will be a reckoning, a smackdown, and/or a cutting away, whichever of thos (Even if it all of them) is necessary.


That's why, for us, we take things our friends say into to much consideration, and we make sure )EEspecially on the borg of face (Facebook) there are friends who we know wouldn't tolerate bull shit before we add them.

Especially when much of the stuff that points to the stupidity are visual cues, which a good majority of this collective misses when we front, because well, no sight. xd

TL;dr, totally agree, and we ask friends for advice/opinions.
