There's a concerted effort on the far right to rebrand bigotry as "political differences". Here are some things that are legitimate political differences:

- Disagreement on what should be the maximum build height for this neighborhood
- Disagreement on whether there should be another tax levee to pay for additional school funding and buy your county new school buses
- Disagreement over how the new development downtown should be zoned, either fully residential or business/residential mixed.

Here are a few things that are NOT "political differences"

- Disagreement on whether or not black people count as people
- Disagreement over whether gay people should be electrocuted to try to make them straight
- Disagreement over whether immigrants deserve basic human rights

These aren't disagreements over politics. They're fundamental differences in morality. And yes, they're valid things to end a friendship over.
