All you have is your friend’s word for it, and There are three sides to the truth. If he’s being unfairly singled out for his political beliefs, he can take it up with HR. I work for a die hard Trumper, and as a dirty lib you know what I do? Not talk about politics. It’s inappropriate in the workplace and your friend is a sperg.
When people bring it up, and a guy is literally threatening violence because he's injecting his into your common discussions there's not much you can do. It's not just my friends word, I was literally in the same room when it happened as were over dozens of other witnesses to the event. It's funny how leftist make something as simple as the "ok" hand gesture as political. Guess you can't avoid politics by that ration, can't wait for drinking milk to become political as well.

And then everyone clapped. Stunning and brave, he debunked the racist OK hand gesture.

Dude, why is your friend injecting himself into other people’s conversations? No one cares about his, or your opinion. If you’re not part of the conversation, stay out of it.

You and your friend sound insufferable.
 
"yeah so one day my friend who never talks about politics at all I swear, well those fucking SJWs used their trump radar and just started wanting to debate him out of the blue and cost him his job!"
 
It seems to me that most of the people posting here are at the extremes of the debate. i.e. 'Nothing untoward happened, the election was fair, Biden was duly elected' vs 'The US is totally screwed. We'll see uniparty rule forever'.

Now I sort of sense that what will actually happen is something between these two extremes. E.g. Biden will get in but he won't have the majority in the Senate for anything radical. Nor, I suspect, in the House.

However, it would be interesting if someone could come up with some plausible middle case scenarios like this, i.e. not the 'everything is fine' or 'we're completely fucked' ones.
>thinking an election with no evidence of widespread fraud didn’t have widespread fraud is an extremist position
You’re a fucking retard. Go back to sperging about British politics and complaining about Labor.

My friend didn't inject himself into another persons conversation. He was talking with someone else, he waved the "ok" hand gesture and then BLM loser of the year award began telling him he shouldn't do that because "It's racist/White supreamcy speel." My friend got into politics about how it is indeed not white supremacy, and the guy threatened violence if he continued to use that hand gesture.

Who got warned for the disagreement, my friend. Who didn't? The guy threatening violence. Funny by your logic that BLM loser is insufferable, which is exactly my point about the left. which is also why I pointed out my friend let people debate him, notice I never said he approached others or got in their face.

This is why reading comp is important.
 
I found a picture of @Mewtwo_Rain's friend:

Technically he has the house, though by a much slimmer margin than the Democrats would like to pretend. Republicans need one seat in GA to have a simple majority but I think there's a very real chance at this point that they lose both. Then it becomes 50-50 which obviously goes to the Dem VP. The Dems right now won't have any room for dissent, and I'm wondering if they're about to start eating each other. My biggest fear is the fact that the fraud seems blatant, and yet no normies seem to be willing to acknowledge the slightest irregularity. They want to believe that this election was the most normal and least suspicious election ever.

As for the other conversation people are sperging/trolling over, my (admittedly extremely lefty) workplace has my boss openly brag about how he hates Republicans and would never let one work for him, and how glad he is about at-will work policies and that political opinion isn't a protected class. I believe most places aren't this extreme, but they definitely exist

I know the kind of person he is but funnily enough it's the opposite. I work with a bunch of typical fox watching conservatives and except this one woman, she loves to be the contrarian liberal voice whenever politics comes up.

I'll take things that never happened for $500, Alex.

She sounds insufferable too. It's so easy to just not chime in when people are talking about shit you disagree with. And just better for your own mental health.
 
Then why are you whining? Nothing happened.
That's exactly the problem. Someone threatened violence, and nothing happened to the person threatening violence.

So you're telling me if your neighbor came to your house threatening to harm you for any specific reason and you call the cops and they do nothing, that you wouldn't be a little bit upset at such an event or weary of how things work in a country where threats of violence are usually you know illegal?

Cops would do nothing in that situation. Believe it or not you can't get arrested for saying you're gonna kick someone's ass.
