People cutting off relationships with other people (and proudly bragging about it) for whatever reason is one the saddest phenomenons I’ve observed in my life. And sometimes it has nothing to do with politics. There are all kinds of dramas and validations for vilifying. Just sad. I can understand not hanging around with the people you don’t share values with. That’s okay, no one’s forcing or course. But this narcissistic antagonizing and assumption of moral superiority? It’s sad, like I said. Maybe this is an overly dramatic mental exercise but think about being on one’s death bed (or her on her deathbed) - will you proud about having been this petty and unforgiving towards your friend?
