The Ask Amy response is brutal as you might expect it to be. Assuming this is real, this is what we're up against in terms of the "progressive" mindset when it comes to politics and entitlments.

“Dave’s behavior is upsetting and embarrassing to me.”

I’m thinking Dave would say the same.

[Jim W N]

he is a conservative voter and has supported candidates we all abhor.

...almost certainly Trump.

This is another facet of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). It is everywhere, like a pandemic, but We The People will overcome with the help of the Divine Providence of God Almighty.

[KC Burke]

I think Dave has learned what his family truly is interested in from him.

[Seruzawa]

Yes. I know liberals just like this. Total narcissists.

[DoodleBob]

If the tables were turned, and a conservative bride excluded leftist Uncle Dave, I can almost guarantee the following would have happened:

1. Uncle Dave would melt down publicly and privately and doxx the bride.

2. The bride would feel vindicated in her decision, and enjoy her wedding.

3. Uncle Dave would inquire if he was missed at the wedding, and why hasn’t anyone asked about him not sending a gift.

4. The bride would reply “Uncle who?”

[RoosterRedux]

Hahah. Been there...done that.

This is a great one for Matt Walsh’s “Am I The A-hole” segment.
This fruitcake and her daughter are the A-holes. Uncle “Dave” is a wise dude.

[jacknhoo]

There’s givers and there’s takers in life.

Dave is a giver, but not a sucker.

Dave’s family are takers.

This was an astonishing read. There was so much to “unpack” in that missive.

I forget sometimes that there are people just like this out there I never cross paths with.

Thankfully.

If I were Uncle Dave, I’d send her husband a card with a divorce attorney listing.

[cyclotic]

My mom, who had early dementia had the temerity to forget my niece’s fiancé’s name so the little skank emailed and uninvited her grandma to the wedding.

My mom was crushed. She still sent a gift. (I told her not to. I also told her that the little brat would be pretty regretful in a few years when grandma is dead.)

[dfwgator]

Dave’s not here, man!

[SharpenedEdge]

This mindset is the cancer that is killing our country and culture.

Good for Uncle Dave.

[adorno]

How can I get my brother to recognize and change his petty behavior?

The letter to Amy has to be made up. Nobody is that stupid, not even the worst of the democrats.

He's not invited,but, they still want his money?

If that letter is about the truthful behavior of Dave's family, then, that's a family that doesn't belong in Dave's life. That family needs to apologize to Dave for their behavior and get on their knees when apologizing.

[antidemoncrat]

Talk about spoiled brats.

[simpson96]

I wrote Dave a very nice note, telling him that we would not be comfortable with him at the wedding and that he would not be invited....

[my daughter] says she was counting on receiving the same type of gift.

That's a liberal for you.

Hate your guts, not invite you, then act offended when you didn't fork over big $ gift.

[Mathews]

In a world of Angry in Philadelphias, be an Uncle Dave!

[Joann37]

Yes! I’m not familiar with this Amy, but she gave the exact perfect response to this liberal family’s ridiculous behavior!

[Billthedrill]

How can I get my brother to recognize and change his petty behavior?

I don't think it's Dave's petty behavior that's in play here, my dear. Someone is insufferably entitled and intolerant here, and it isn't Dave.

[rightwingcrazy]

The progressive mindset is to hate everything about conservatives with a white-hot passion, except their money, which they covet with a white-hot passion. This story is consistent with that.
