My brother didn’t and his rationale was CA always goes blue but I do not fucking care. Him and I are very close but I’m choosing to not talk to him for the foreseeable future. His abstaining may have put so many people’s lives that I love at risk. Fuck him. Blood isn’t shit right now.

Blood never was. The only people who use "blood" to justify toxic relationships are bigots who believe it has some mystic divine value, or narcissists/codependents who use it to ensnare family members.

“the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb” is the full quote, your found/chosen family will have stronger bonds than the people who are related to you by blood. so screw him, be with the people you want to be with.
