I need to drop one of my 'friends'.

I don't have any positive interactions with them anymore. Anytime I bring up something I'm looking forward to, they shit on it. When I say that I am having doubts about something they're sure about, they call me ableist terms. Not to mention that they deep-throat boot regularly, often to the point of defending fascist sympathizers.

I don't want to deal with the shit show of telling them to fuck off (it will cause issues in other social circles) and I know that I can't get away with ghosting them.

don’t ghost them. just make a decision not to contact them. if they contact you, don’t make a deal about it. just let it fade out naturally. friendships end all the time. just embrace drifting apart.

There's an unfortunate twist of events that's going to put me in further contact this person that I can't figure out how to avoid :(

Hopefully I can figure something out

Can you be in contact while minimizing interaction? Like, just not talk about things you care about in front of them during that further contact?

That's probably the most practical option
