So, I went to visit my parents after almost a year of them refusing physical visits. They now feel somewhat safe. My dad decides to start trashing Trump. He was spitting out every lie that we've seen shared by CNN/MSNBC/ fake news. He claimed that there was no voter fraud, no antifa at the capital and that the Proud Boys are the ones who burned down cities last year and that BLM was trying to protect their communities. He then went on a rant that I shouldn't have a right to say anything because I didn't vote when I was 24 years old. He made the ridiculous statement that we came SO close to losing our Democracy. My son and I sadly got up and quietly walked out from the visit. My parents are lost. They spent the last 4 years being programmed and there is no hope. They have been lied to so much that no amount of "proof" will change their minds.
My parents are gone, I've lost them.....
?️ DISCUSSION ?
Literally the same exact story for my in laws, except we won’t be taking any trips to see them when they finally feel “safe.” My husband and I had a baby in Dec 2019 and the in laws were present and around the baby - then when COVID hit, they up and abandoned my daughter. They asked us to keep face-timing and we were just like... you know what? No! Come see her in person I am not doing this!! So they have literally no relationship with my daughter, their ONLY grandchild. I wouldn’t care if they wanted to quarantine away from my husband and I; whatever right? But no, they let COVID ruin the relationship with their grandbaby. Who the fuck does that. Bridges have been burned. I pray for them to find Jesus. Please God reach those people! I can’t even stand to look at pictures of them anymore. The icing on the cake is they are avid anti Trumpers cause muh media said so and “we do our research, Trump is a hateful child imprisoning racist.”
Blame those who make and serve the poison, not those who have become addicted. Be ready for when they wake up and begin to change. Pray it will happen soon. My 2 cents. Also, a lot of kids gave their parents plenty of grief when they were kids... maybe it's just time to pay some of it back...
Maybe. Its just revolting to think they wasted this time with their granddaughter.
Agreed. I get angry at people who choose fear, because it's a horrible way to live life. But the anger is selfish, because I also miss them. I hope they all recover from fear and come back to the world, vibrant with love and opportunity. But it's a long time coming. Hopefully they come back to their senses. Your daughter will be the first to forgive them when it happens. Until then, keep hope for them in prayers. Good luck.
You are very right. She would forgive them and I would have to, too. Its hard to see in this storm right now but I am hanging on for dear life, thanks to God.
Oh totally! I have asked them. They say stupid shit like “I want to see your sources and don’t send me to any of those maga sites; or anything Q conspiracy!” You can’t win with these folks. The globalists tell the sheeple that a source isn’t bonafide unless its brand named (CNN, Snopes, BUZZFEED). The in-laws are spineless and brainless. I didn’t know this until COVID hit. I always thought they were pretty smart people. They don’t have God, thats their issue. They don’t want Him in their lives.
As far as COVID goes, they are brainwashed into believing that the science is settled. My MIL literally told me (in the middle of COVID) that Trump is responsible for small businesses closing; not the lockdowns. Give me a fucking break
Oh yeah, we have tried to just send it. They think my husband and I are idiot low IQ conspiracy theorist Trump supporters.
You might have to take the first step to mend the relationship. Pray on it. Thanks for sharing.
I know its not very godly of me but I just don’t even want to. You know? They disgust me.
I’m hearing you in stereo.
