    I know a few people like this. They see everything through a political lens. It’s exhausting.

    Sorry your dad has no chill. Mine was much the same way. Maybe call it to his attention in a funny way. “You know dad, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.”

      Thanks.

      Trust me, we’ve all mentioned it to him. He’s convinced nobody likes him because he’s a conservative.

        That’s projection.

        He doesn’t like people because they aren’t conservative and he’s projecting that same feeling onto others and treats them as he thinks they would treat him. With hostility.

          To be fair he might not like some people because they are black, trans, or little people regardless of if they are conservative or not.

        The catch here is that I don’t like people who try to destroy my friends’ lives. Since the conservative platform is to destroy many of my friends’ lives, I don’t like people who follow the conservative platform. Conservatives like to treat this as bigotry when it actually isn’t. It’s intolerance of intolerance, which is not just acceptable, but necessary.
