Pretty obvious that this guy is a stupid asshole, so makes sense. Congrats to his daughters for telling him to fuck himself. I had a parent who said incredibly stupid shit like the “liberalism is a mental disorder” line I would not talk to them either.

Idk who needs to hear this but:

Your children don’t owe you self assurance, if they chose to cut contact with you fully then that’s their right.

[–] Rekorse 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He's not saying they have no right, he's saying he's sad they won't come to thanksgiving. Pretty simple. You can say its justified sure, but it doesnt change his perspective any.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He never actually says, "I am sad."

He says "It is sad" and that his daughters are mentally ill.

I simply disagree but we won't really be able to follow up with the guy anyways.

[–] Grandwolf319 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No it’s not, he is trying to claim the moral high ground.

[–] Rekorse 0 points 19 hours ago

He's looking for sympathy because he's sad.

Ah the classic:

"Your behaviour has harmed me, so I do not wish to see you anymore"

"No, wrong, it is YOUR behaviour in saying this that has harmed ME"

Slightly off topic:

When my parents divorced, I was bummed out that I had to attend two thanksgiving dinners. The second was not turkey. We charred hot dogs over an open fire (lived in the midwest at the time) and made smores. It was pretty great.

This had nothing to do with the election. It's just a nice memory.

I'm not skinny enough to understand this sentiment

"I let them"

Dudes showing internally he thinks he controls their votes. That he could've not let them had he chosen so.

So his daughters should be thankful for such a benevolent patriarch. /S

"I just supported taking away your rights. Why are you mad at meeeeee????"

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

To be fair, he might have not supported taking their rights... he might have just loved a rapist, criminal so much he was willing to overlook taking away their rights.

After reading my tweet, the turkey escaped from the oven. The whole animal kingdom is sick. It's sad.

I hope the three girls organise their own thanksgiving dinner and invite their mom.

"I voted for the idea that women aren't people, now the women in my life don't like me."

"Childish and rude".

Kinda reminds me of someone.

merely because they believe my one vote...

He thinks his vote doesn't contribute or something?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 day ago

Conservatives think consequences are extremely unfair. Everything is an act of god to them.

[–] [email protected] 98 points 2 days ago (13 children)

With lines like "[your political opinion] is a mental disorder", why is he surprised they aren't coming?

"Liberalism is a mental disorder" These people are very telling how they treat people who they think legitimately have mental illness.

Interesting that he phrased it as liberalism.

“My kids don’t want to hang out with me after I dismissed their opinions as a mental disorder and the party I voted for tries to control their bodies! Why must I suffer? I didn’t do anything to them directly! These kids today are so unfaaaair!”

What a jackass.

I hope his kids have a great holiday. Good on them for standing up for their beliefs.
