Its all due to different political beliefs. My Dad & the rest of my family are radical far right and love Trump. I dont share their views so I aint allowed to be there anymore. Its the first Christmas without my Mom so I thought theyd cut me some slack and invite me but nope

I have a kinda similar situation. I could go to my sister's house for Christmas but I feel reluctant to do so (to the point where I just don't want to go at all) for certain reasons....

Damn that really sucks. It sucks that people identify themselves based on their political beliefs, nowadays.

Gets in the way of friendships and families.

we havent been this divided since the civil war tbh

Why not? His family considers him less important than their support of a buffoon.

Weve always been a really political family. And it caused a lot of problems over the years. Arguments & the occasional fist fight

My mom was good at keeping everyone in check but with her gone I dont know wtf would happen. I wanted us to come together and remember her this year but they dont want me there

They probably see you bitching on social media about conservatives and thinl nah we don't need him bitching and arguing with us.

I am the civil one. My dad told me he loves Trump more than me and wrote me out of the will because I left the republican party

That's insane, so its more them then you.
Maybe sadly its best then you don't eat with them, don't have to deal with their bullshit and arguing with you.

I'm sorry to hear that, TC. It sucks that the rest of your family can't put politics aside just once, especially after losing someone to an illness like that.

I hope you manage to have a good Christmas regardless (perhaps with friends or colleagues) and are able to remember her in your own way.

Man, that's fucked. But it's pretty typical of Trumpers. They call others snowflakes and worship the biggest one of all. Seems like your family even emulates him.

I mean, if they're that short minded where their political beliefs get in the way of family cohesiveness, do you really want to be part of that celebration anyways?

Sounds like you've dodged a bullet tbh

your family sounds terrible, i'm sorry, dude. honestly, as hard as it might be..i'd completely sever ties and never think of them again. i personally wouldn't want anything to do with a family like that. not telling you to do that, i'm just putting myself in the same shoes.

You could always just keep your views to yourself. Let them drone on and on and on and just show up for the food and family. As I get older I find myself caring less and less about politics so whenever political talk starts up I just ignore it.

do your other siblings act the same as your father does? If they can't put those minor differences aside for your mother...I don't even know what to say about that i'm honestly at a loss for words.

This isn't the same as cutting out toxic friends or acquaintances. That mindset is much harder to deal when it's immediate family, especially since TC lost his mom.

TC isn't known to make up things like this for attention. He's typically a good poster.

Maybe learn to accept people with different views and you'd be invited. By the way, it's called Christmas, not "the holidays." You're not invited to Christmas because you say dumb shit like that.

You should get the rest of your siblings to get banned (or at least half) to reboot family gatherings.

My condolences to your loss of your mum, cancer has affected so many families.

Don't respond to him. Its the same dude with nothing better to do who has to make a new account every 2 months. He just needs attention. ignore it and move on. trolling in a topic like this is pretty damn low.

I'm not trolling at all and I don't make new accounts. I'm giving him advice to figure out how to get back into being a part of his family. Drop the attitude.
