In general, both religion and politics are meant to be private matters for each individual. That was the old rule, and it become a rule for a good reason.
Morons today think it is fine to share every minute detail of their lives with the entire world, because they are morons. Don't be a moron. Be careful who you share your private matters with (small select group of people only).
I'm horrified at people that look at politics like a sporting event. NOTHING matters as long as their team is winning, we could be suffering a nuclear holocaust caused by dimwits like AOC and they would still be behind their team.
Taking politics and religion out of every day conversation was the wrong choice. It wasn’t the good old rule, it’s just what people adopted to stop being targeted. It was a defensive reaction to the liberalization of this country.
Fuck that. Share your opinions, just don’t go around sounding like a crazy person. Bitch about corruption, that’s a great way to redpill people.
Oh yeah, you keep it on the downlow. I still make little comments that Normies would know and agree with—I.e. the massive increase in Epipens and Diabetes meds due to Biden’s EO. And then see who knows and has that “look” (the Look of being Awake and not Dead).
I just continue doing what I do. I don't pay much attention to loss of friendships or family to this mess or any other reason they need to justify leaving my life.
Eventually, either they come around and seek you out to offer an apology, which means you win, or they don't and you never have to deal with them again, and you also win. It's a win-win, either way.
If people want to get mad at you and leave your life for whatever reason, it doesn't matter for what/why, then they were going to at some point anyway. So, it doesn't really matter.
What does matter are those that stay, regardless of a different viewpoint and continue to live their lives WITH you. Those are the relationships people need to focus on and cultivate, not the lost, which would've happened anyway. That path is the path of folly.
I think it's particularly bad right now. This was also written about in the Bible as Jesus said he does not come to bring peace but division. I think we are seeing a classic case of good and evil and many unwillingly are choosing evil. I have realized that many of my former friends are not truly friends. I realize how important politics, religion, and willingness to accept truth really is. It isn't enough for a friend to be funny, kind, interesting, etc.... If they blatantly ignore truth or have political ideals that include the removal of my freedom. My circle has been cut, but frankly it wasn't big to begin with anymore these days.
I find i need to watch what I say and to who. I’ve tried to redpill everyone I care about. The ones who resist or don’t care, have either stopped talking to me or I’ve just decided to not have those conversations anymore. Which sucks because 10 years ago many of those same people were the ones who had the same conversations saying “could you imagine if this was true?” back then. Now it’s turning out to be true and I’m the crazy one. It’s frustrating but it is what it is.
one way is to completely over blow it - you want me to wear a mask, i'll turn up in a gas mask and hazmat suit with a gallon of bleach in a sprayer
let's see how your sanitation fetish suits you when the job is done properly (as it actually should be) - not as some insane narrative to install communism.
take it to the extreme...
oh - that sounds great yes - we should have covid concentration camps setup - let's have concentration camps for trump supporters too... if they don't shut up and change their ways, just gas them.....
etc. etc.
another way is just not to talk about it
"we don't share the same views, so i have zero interest in listening to your politics"
another way is to drop subtle but powerful hints that confront the narrative, so they can decide from themselves that they have been conned.
I tried to redpill folks, but don't think I'll do it again with people who are FARRRRRRRRRRRRRR left. Especially not family anymore, it's just not worth the hate you get back and name calling. They will have to be in shock. The 4-6% I'm done with them. Don't push it, you have nothing to do with the situation they've put themselves in "sleeping" it's like at an accident scene, you can't can't be of any help to anyone if you become a victim yourself. Take care of yourself first, make sure your own mental health in order. Force yourself to leave this all for a while, go do something else, listen to music, music you enjoy. Run, jog, work out because the mind can't live without the body and the body can't live without the mind.
I have to say that most people I deal with (family included) are like-minded (conservatives). I have one cousin, that I know of, that is redpilled. Most other times I just don't bother bringing up the issue. However, if they do, it's all out, full on.
My advice is now stay quiet unless asked and answer questions with questions to make them feel comfortable that they’re not the only one questioning. And for the ones who don’t ask, wait for the storm to drench them.
Well my lefty friend has asked me to respect him and not talk politics.I was hitting him too hard with the truth and that’s when I remembered that they can’t be told they have to see for themselves! So I am goin to wait till he wakes up, it is coming !This GME stock market situation has started some smoke ! I am hoping the ? will be lit soon .As long as we are there to help them understand we shouldn’t end up with the 4 to 6 in our lives they will end up alone. ?
I wouldn't sweat it any longer. I'm not going to datefag but I don't see how the current situation can drag out longer than a few more months, and likely a lot less than that if I'm reading the current situation accurately.
So this is going to be resolved one way or the other. The worst case scenario is that Biden remains president and we go into some sort of quasi civil war. If that happens then I doubt it matters who you have redpilled, they'll go back to the blue pill.
If it turns out the way we all think and hope it will, they'll get red pilled by the news. The old guard is going out, no more CNN bullshit when this finally breaks wide open. So you can just sit back and field the phone calls from people who realize you have been right and would like further information. The rest of the haters can go pack sand.
Lost a very dear, military buddy this week. After listening to him tell me of the terrorist attacking DC. I tried to correct him with first hand info. ABC, nbc ,cbs lost soul. There is only one way to right this ship, GODWINS

in this aspect you have to sympathize with the NWO attitude that someone needs to 'run the world'
most people clearly have no clue and even less acumen.
in ancient Rome and many of the old world cities - your citizenship had to be earned, your right to vote was earned.
like that you get a council of elders, not a political circus
still can be corrupted and or decay, but why should any old 18yrs have the right to vote - WTF does he know about anything ?

I have always chosen to keep a smaller circle of like minded people. Life's too short to walk around on eggshells
I dust off the bottom of my feet at them and walk on past. Pray for them.

Only since Obama took office. Things became really polarized. Then under Trump the left became down right NAZIish.
Obummer really unified the country, didn’t he?
Yeah. He unified the democrats and leftists against conservatives.
Eh, were you not here during the Bush days? It's was pretty polarizing 2003 on.
I dont recall it being like this.
Time (and a few incoming truth bombs -- wait for it) heals all wounds.
I go between hopeful and pissed off. No different than I have for years. Don’t take shit from anyone. You know you’re right.
I just continue doing what I do. I don't pay much attention to loss of friendships or family to this mess or any other reason they need to justify leaving my life.

Yes. None of us know what is going on or what is going to happen. It is a good time to close your mouth and not ruin relationships.
It doesn't do any good anyway.
I believe this is a time to just chill until we understand what is happening.

I feel your pain and look at it this way, no cross I have to bear is worse than what Jesus himself had to bear.

I love when these conversations come up, I believe they help so many in many ways. They're typically extremely popular.
