I love you too Dwayne, and I'm sorry that it's come to this; I really wish it didn't have to, and I really wish it was as simple as disagreeing with each other, but I just couldn't deal with a lot of the stuff you were posting and sharing anymore, as it went beyond just whether or not we agreed on an issue or something, a lot of it was just plain dismissive of what's been going on with people and how their lives have been affected by things that have plagued us lately, such as the pandemic. I hate to play the "toxicity" card, but I felt this is what it boiled down to. I don't believe you're truly a bad person at all, I do believe that deep down you want to see the best in everybody - I just feel that you're terribly ill-informed about what's really going on, and you just can't open your eyes to it.
I do believe the pandemic is a bad, and sad tragedy in this world. Not only because of the now millions it has killed but also the humongous financial toil its taking on everyone. That being said, I personally choose not to live in fear. Now some may deem that as selfish and foolish but its how I choose to live.
For instance I do not continuously wear a mask when I'm out and about, but if I go some place, and they ask me to wear one I will, and won't cause a scene.
As for the George Floyd murder trial, I do not dispute that his death was and is a tragedy. No 9ne deserves to die the way he did in such fear. After watching most of the trial I do question the reason the officers stayed on him for so long, but I don't think it was raceculy motivated.
Finally, for the stuff I post on Facebook. With the exception of the two pastors (Dr. Phill Kidd*My pastor* and Dr. Greg Locke) most of the extreme right wing political stuff I have shared I do for the sake of conversation. I'm a very weird person, in the fact that I love the art of expressing thoughts, and information through debate, and conversation. If I disagree with something or someone why shouldn't we have a conversation about it? Sure my mind will more than likely not completely change,but at least I will know where others are on any given point.
