Two of my closest friends went through a friendship breakup around 6 months ago. I know in these type of situations you gotta take sides but I didn't agree with both of their sides so I stayed neutral.
They split up because of a division in politic belief but I'm not talking about classic US economy, no. They had different opinions about the most greyest area of grey areas and I KNOW for a fact that neither of them have read a book or ask an elder to give their unbiased opinion about this topic, like I KNOW that both of their opinions are copy pastes from tiktok or twitter. They're both leftists but they fall under different terms when it came to a specific historical part of the history of socialism look I know I sound vague asf right now but TRUST ME THEY WERE ACTING LIKE IMBESSILES WHILE TRYING TO COME OFF AS SMART. Like the whole reason they ended an amazing friendship was because they were too prideful to admit that maybe, both of them are wrong, or non of them should be entitled to their opinion THIS much.
I'd also like to remind that they're 18 like bitch non of you are intellectual nor wise enough to develop an concrete opinion about your political stance. World doesn't revolve around you, someone who shares all the same opinions as you doesn't exist, if that person existed that would be you.
Anyways when I asked both of them to elaborate why they were thinking that way both of them gave me a half assed answer like huh? At least know what you're talking about if you're gonna stand by it.
And when I hang out with one of them, they shittalk the other while I'm there like hello??? Don't do that that's not beneficial for any of us??? Or the other one whom was the one who decided to cut the other off keeps reposting tiktoks about how nobody likes them, how they're a lone wolf, how they're depressed and they vent to me about how they have no friends like??? Go make friends then??? Since I'm not enough and you cut everyone off??? (This wasn't the first person he cut off whoops sorry forgot to mention that)
But the reason why I'm so mad today is I was scrolling on tiktok and this hellspawn of an app heard my thoughts I guess because it bombarded me with tiktoks about being the kid of a friendship breakup and the comments were all talking about how you're a spineless bitch if you don't pick a side like oh my fucking god stfu you can't just come to that conclusion how many people have yall even met to come to that conclusion bruh. I'm my own person I chose to do whatever I want.Â
I know I shouldn't even take this personally, I know some stupid tiktok comments don't matter and they live in their own bubble, but those comments hit a nerve I guess because for the past 6 months one of my biggest fear is them forcing me to pick a side but I would never want to pick a side because I love them both so much. I'm so angry that they decided to end their friendship just because they picked a stupid fight over a "who's more of an intellectual" contest. I just miss the past and have all these thoughts that I can't really share with anyone.
