I'll go first [CW racism]

"Did you know they just passed a law in Afghanistan that women aren't even talk to each other anymore?" - My Zionist cousin at Xmas dinner.

The rest of the family proceeded to spend half an hour ranting about how terrible Arabs are.

    I just heard from a 3rd party that one of my sister's been complaining that pride month is disrespectful to US troops

    We don't live in the US and half of the family is gay

    On the other hand I gave stacks of antifascist stickers to my other sisters and they loved the Palestine stickers with butterflies on them so I guess it's a give and take

        Honestly I feel like I could get her back to her senses pretty easily, she's one of the most empathetic (but not critical) people I know and I'm pretty sure this is just some bullshit her coworkers have fed her, I unfortunately heard about this after I got back home from my parents, she lives in another city and this is a discussion I want to have face to face

        Couple of my siblings already called her out, but those were just text messages and she backed away instantly
