I think this is interesting. Although this may be a beef between two people people donโt know I donโt think itโs far fetched for people to stop being friends with people whoโs thoughts/opinions go against their morales.
Itโs one thing to have a different opinion, but if I saw one of my friends defending a rapist or rape apologist because โwho cares about rapeโ thereโs no way you could be a friend of mine
