We've all been guilty of falling into tribal political traps and supporting people who, under normal circumstances, we'd disavow

That's completely false. Democrats haven't been supporting anyone that we'd disavow under normal circumstances. Whenever Democrats are caught doing something bad, they are canned.

Both parties are not the same and as long as you keep pushing that lie, you are part of the problem.

You're right, but your phrasing is a little confusing:

They are not covered under the first amendment because they are not government agencies.

They are not restricted by the first amendment because they are not government agencies.

They are covered by the first amendment because they are permitted to say whatever they want to.

So if someone tells a lie and you call them out on it, it's partisan? Facts are the only thing that are non-partisan.

Things on Twitter are trending when people talk about it a lot. That has nothing to do with censorship....

Thanks for being willing to discuss your experiences!

Do you do any work these days to try to reach out to people you knew in those circles or are they unreceptive because of your betrayal?
