I have made an effort to avoid old friends who now self-identify as maga. I mean to the extent possible. I'm retired from the field of mental health, and while I know these people do not have mental illness as individuals, they do suffer from something between mental health and illness. They are not well in that sense. I feel compassion for these people. The hostile ones that are 100% focused upon Amendment 2 issues, not so much.
