i’m bi. so is my gf katya.

however, katya is also a HUGE right-wing Trump supporter. she literally follows him on every single account and says stuff like “no one cares abt lgbt rights” which is an odd thing to say as a bi person.

Katya is also very nice to me and very much in love with me, though, despite our differing opinions, and I know she’d be offended if I questioned them.

    How do you possibly feel comfortable giving life changing advice based on what an anonymous person says in a short paragraph?

    I didn’t give them any advice on how to proceed.

    You will literally never see them in your life, know nothing about them.

    It’s that part. The anonymous, never seeing them part, gives us comfort. You knew the answer your own self but good work being self righteous.

    An utter lack of empathy and understanding, caring only about you and your personal politics.

    Correct. Their partner doesn’t care about others or their personal politics.

    I have made my peace with the paradox of tolerance and will provide none to anyone who mentions approval of Trump or right wing policies. Their rhetoric is not “politics”. If that means you think I only care about myself that’s fine, I don’t particularly care what anonymous people on the Internet who I will never see think. See what I did there?

      Lol you aren’t being clever by projecting and saying no u. Just please stay away from giving relationship advice if you are incapable of empathy.

      There is no paradox of tolerance. Tolerance is a social contract. Those who don’t abide by it, aren’t protected by it. So you are absolutely correct in the last paragraph.
