It's always painful to see people we love, especially parents, just succumb to the propaganda. At this point I think we're just uncovering that our parents might just be racist and sexist way more than we thought growing up. Like my mom tells me she's "not racist,' nah she is racist she just doesn't realize it.

For context I'm an elder millennial

The last decade has taught me my apolitical working class union boomer parents hate bigots and genocide.

Good, I got the opposite lesson for one parent and that same lesson with the other.

How do they feel about one another?

Lol they got divorced after being married for something like 30 years so ... That ... It wasn't because of politics though idk I was in my 20s already when they got divorced so I didn't really care or pry too much.

It is extremely disappointing to get into a shouting match with your parents, who despite wearing the uniform vote for the fucking scum that uniform sent a whole bunch of boats on one June day to quite literally exterminate nazi tyranny. Propaganda and religion have warped some peoples mind to the point they just straight up ignore the cognitive dissonance like an SEP Field
