The maga-ites in my family tried to employ a strategy shared on conservative social media, through my father to pressure me to keep my “commie” mouth shut and it backfired on them because they’re unaware that I’ve been lending him the rent & medical bill money that they’ve refused to lend him. (He doesn’t know that they’re gifts that I never expect to get back).
I still think I’m lucky since they were at least willing to walk in egg shells around me while I visited out of fear of permanently alienating me like they did to my mother and sister.
However things will change if they ever realize that they need to help Dad/Grandpa/great-grandpa rather than buying a new mustang or buying a bigger house for themselves.
