Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:

Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

Are there honestly examples where two people significantly disagreed politically and got along with each other? Life itself is hard enough, I want a teammate not an oppressor.
I'm pretty staunchly left leaning and am friends with a MAGA supporter. If anything, he isn't an outright bad person, he's just...really ignorant and holds some very warped and manipulated views of reality. He tends to just see headlines and not think critically about what information he accepts as fact, instead operating primarily on emotion (shocker). I feel like I've changed his mind on a few things, but I'll certainly never dig him entirely out of that trench, not that that's really my place or goal. These days we mostly just avoid talking politics, probably because he's sick of me debunking all the crap that comes out of his mouth lol.
This sounds like something right out of 1930s Germany.
You're not really wrong, but what else should I do? It's not like I let his bullshit slide and shrug it off and go "oh you!" I let him know when he's wrong and why he's wrong, and we can still remain friends. That's a win in my opinion.
