It all depends how far and deep we take politics. Can't imagine being friends with someone who rejects equality, tolerance or fairness for example. But could be friends with someone who has different opinions on say abortion or death penalty

I don't think it's any different if it's on the forum or not, it's still just being able to or not being able to get past people's views. They still have a personality besides those opinions.

There are loads of people I don't agree with on here, whether it's things like reality tv favourites or even political views yet they're some of my favourite members.

First, we talking politics not tv favourites. The latter would be silly.
Maybe you think someone's politics is not important. I think it goes to the core of who they are

Let's say someone was charming etc but was an ardent trump supporter, there's no way I could overlook their support of him
But let's say they were broadly centrist and supported conservatives I could be ok with that

Problem is they'll always be some people who'll randomly say "oh well Trump is getting things done" or how they think he's "OK" .

And I don't have the patience for that kind of foolery , sometimes it's best not to talk politics I hate it .

There are literally some people who do that though It's just not being able to accept that others have different opinions and are not 'trolling' because it doesn't align with their views.

I guess it depends on the specific person, some people are tolerable for whatever reason and others aren't so much.

Maybe I disagree with myself now
