    I think it’s brilliant that people publicise their political affiliations - it’s like a big red flag to either avoid certain topics… or just avoid them altogether.

    It’s like Social Interaction for Dummies.

      Last time I was on the dating market some of these people popped up on the dating app. Holy hell and it were always the maniacs that had to make their dumbassery public.

      My favourite was that young lady who was extremely anti vax and tried to make it a “my body my choice” kind of thing. Everything read like she died on that hill a couple of times already.

      It’s not a difficult thing to sniff out. You just have to mention something innocuous like toilet paper and suddenly you’ll know more or less which side of center that person is on.

      I never swiped right on a lady firing a gun. Or taking a picture in the mirror of a public bathroom. Not the same thing. I just remembered the second one as I mentioned the first.
