I have friends from all parties , and we never let politics gets in between us.
I sometimes spend the day in TJ , then spend the night in Shiah and tayyouni or Ein l remmene... Never ever fought over politics , ofc we make many discussions but never reached the limit of fighting.
Maybe that's just me , I never really approach hardcore brainwashed supporters whichever party they belong to. a hardcore FMer or FPMer or LFer or HAer are all the same to me = bad. the other moderate supporters are the real people who will build the country because they're the one able to SEE and DISCUSS.

Personally, I never lost friends becuz of politics. I have friends who r PSPers and a friends who's anti-Syrian but who doesn't like Hariri, we may oppose each other in our political ideas but we remain friends.

I am not interested in being friends with anyone who opposes my political views about Lebanon, for I believe that anyone who opposses Hezbollah is either very dumb/brainwashed, evil or outright racist.

Exactly Most of them are DUMB and/or Brainwashed, and By Dumb I mean UnInformed about the current-situation/History or Having poor Judgement, But I have come across some "evil" ones like you mentionned They Mostly know what ther Doing and some of them even get paid to say what they say Specially on the Net, As for the "Racists" Most of them Are surprizingly Secterian/Extremists Although Thier Religion does not support such a way of thinking and forbids it.
Yes No one is interested in being Really close freinds with someone Like that But the Problem is that You already have such freinds from Before 2005 and before this whole Secterian/Racist/Isolatinist/Defeatist/Takfiri/Wasatiyiin Movie That we are watching today, I Guess the best Solution is to never Discuss politics with them Although They Will try do so sometimes :) Or Put some Stupid Image of Saad In thier profile Pages or some stupid Political Statement next to thier E-mail Address Or say sumthing stupid Like "el Mourabitoun Nezlou Ma3na 3a 14 Feb" LAAAaaaaaaa2!!!! (don't reply Stay Calm...Don't Reply......REPLY!!! )

Dear All,

This is the second warning and the last in this thread!
We've been going easy with the rules thinking this is a nice thread with a nice subject worth being discussed with not much restraints, bas mesh kharej.
Apparently some members took it a chance to attack opponents instead of discussing the IDEA of "losing friends because of politics" in general.

Any cheap shot, attack, defamation, labelling, tekhwin towards any party or any rule broken will result in closing the thread for good.

This is the stress and headache I have to deal with Every single day As I'm stuck between Many Extremist Lebnese Shiite who call me Wahhabi When I try to defend Mainstream islam and I get accused of Being a Shiite By The Brainwashed Sunni Street in Lebanon and recently This has spread to a few relatives which is causing A few problems.
This thread is not about Religion, It is simply about what its title describes and I want to know If anything similar is happening with Others and if there is some Magical Lebanese advice to fix this somehow.

Personally, friendship is very precious to me, and I always found my relationships with others on a human basis.
Maybe I had too many discussions with many of my friends, but they still my friends and we respect each others choices; and I've never lost any of my friends cz of political affiliations cz I think everyone has the freedom to choose in which side he wants to be, and I think that the discussions have to respect some level where nobody hurts the others, intentionally or unintentionally.

Ba3den , do you think that all those who have your same affiliation are good friends? how many of them are stubborn ,cynical, liars...etc...etc? there's many who don't deserve to be in a healthy relationship.

So, in friendship, I prefer to take the human side and choose those people with whom i'll feel good and with whom I can have fun no matter what is their affiliation
