So when talking to people who identify as LEFT. I found another way to help with red pilling people.
I tell people the reason why I am center/right. Is because of POWER.
As you move over to the left. What you are really saying is that you want POWER to be transferred over to the state.
As you move over to the right. What you area really saying is that you want POWER to be transferred over to the people.
After I state this.
I ask them a question.
Why should I TRUST power to the state? When they can FORCE you to comply at GUNPOINT?
You cannot undo a law as easily as you think.
This tends to get them to think differently.
That's how my conversations always go, because I'm a libertarian.
There are some people who simply think with an authoritarian view. If they use phrases liken "Can we just," "Can we please stop," "Why such and such non important thing is a problem," they almost certainly say the words "there should be a law for that" daily.
Back when I used to be able to be friends with liberals, this one liberal couple came to sushi night, and they never did because it's too expensive. The other 5 couples at the table, myself included, are wealthy, right leaning people. One couple already ate but came for some sake. We used to do this weekly so the joint knew all of us by name and knew to split up separate checks. So liberal boy and his girl order up $240 between the two of them when a typical bill is only $60 a person. When the check comes, he throws a hissy fit about thr separate checks and tells the poor waitress to go being back one bill. Couple that already ate and had a $16 bill for one bottle of sake is like wtf, but homie is not letting up and tells us that's our fault we didn't order more and if you're not going to eat you shouldn't come to dinner. Honestly, none of us ever care about the bill and it's not uncommon for one of us to not have our wallet (wearing board shorts) so we ask the waitress if she could bring back a check for the 10 who ate and keep the other tab separate. She does and the liberal keeps complaining how unfair this is that their bill isn't going to be split as low. So the next time we invited them out, we put them in the couples position purposely inviting them out after seeing on social they had already gone to dinner. They joined for drinks, and we threw a hissy fit that it wasn't fair if they don't split the check with us (this time a steakhouse with $80 plates) and got the exact OPPOSITE argument hahaha. We never hung out with them again.
Sorry for the book... but there are just some people who are so selfish and deluded, that they will hold double standards and never see this argument. They want all the freedom in the world while wanting to lock everyone else up. Weather it's politics or dinner, they act in the same, hypocritical way. They're the 6% that are unsaveable.
Sadly, that is a very good example.
Goodness gracious.
So unbelievably crude.
So entitled.
They expected someone else to pay their bill, so they took advantage.
And got caught with their greed hanging out.
