Guy Benson Questions 'Dill'-emma: Friend Ousted from Pickleball League Over Politics

More and more people are realizing they are only good to their Leftist friends as long as they tow the line.

A friend of mine — middle-of-the-road, not a Trump voter fwiw — fairly recently moved to a new city & was invited to play in a pickleball league. Here’s what happened next. And the hateful, ignorant, insipid bullies who acted this way somehow think they’re the “good” gays.🤮 pic.twitter.com/o8mfZaO6r5

So, this friend who just isn't rabidly Leftist, just a regular person, was kicked out of the pickleball league simply because he wasn't basically a communist. These people are really insane.

People who demand everyone around them conform to one singular view are the worst. https://t.co/rghCWRiwva

I thought every pickleball league is a gay pickleball league https://t.co/Fcd9wEudP3 pic.twitter.com/iL1KItNFHG

The people have jokes.

There’s something really wrong with the left. https://t.co/EfTv0DHHBf

They have truly lost their minds. It's wild.

Never realized it before but “pickle ball” is the gayest name for a sport possible, besides curling or soccer https://t.co/9Fo5KOBP1j

Isolation and exclusion is cultist behavior.
Don’t be like this terrible group of haters. https://t.co/YdAQz2xay2

One of the things that’s so crazy about making politics so personal is that even if you “win,” and the friend or family member you’re threatening to cut off converts to your side, you’ve just won one new voter. Congrats! At great social cost, you’ve earned one vote. You could… https://t.co/q2Q2k8sfVj

No one 'wins' losing friends and family over politics. It's not worth it.

“Diversity & Tolerance” 🤔 https://t.co/nazuYig68D

Goodness… may those who are part of this ‘tolerant left’ keep losing for years to come with this kind of attitude! https://t.co/gNcIpP17Aw

They deserve to lose. Maybe if they lose enough, they'll wake up and stop behaving like this.

The left is not okay. https://t.co/psnl0HMtct

Another anecdote, of COUNTLESS. The ostracism is so real. See it, and experience it, regularly in DC. https://t.co/ML4s21flJB

That's so disappointing.
