I'm in the opposite boat. My inlaws are all MAGA whereas my wife and I are very much liberal. This is 'her' year for visiting family and she does want to go, but I've already warned her that her entire family is on the THINNEST of ice. It's going to take a miracle for us to actually stay. I'm sort of looking forward to the first comment from them where we can simply scoop up the kids and head out.
My wife and I both posted images on Facebook about how we don't feel safe around people who voted Trump and don't consider them friends. Not even really decided if we'd say anything to family yet. Their parents sent them a message basically saying "so logically you don't consider us friends or feel safe around us." So that was the last straw. We aren't going.
I'd have to grab the pic we both shared, but yes, it would've been a logical conclusion from it. But it was just so weird and passive aggressive to just text that to your daughter in that manner.
the parents are applying modus ponens, so the use of the word “logically” is justified here. just weird to see it happen from the maga crowd
