If a friend of mine ever insisted that LGBT people are abominations or considered it acceptable that refugee children are being torn away from their parents and thrown in cages or claimed that a (((global cabal))) is engaged in a vast international conspiracy to control the banking industry for unstated nefarious reasons, then I absolutely would cut them out of my life without hesitation. Issues like those aren't a difference of opinion; they're a difference of morality.
