I’ve been trying to redpill someone I became associated with a couple years ago. He’s the chair of the local Democrat Party. They have little power here because we are massively red, but still I thought if I could redpill him it would remove the head the serpent that is trying to grow here. After he made excuses over the Burisma/Biden affair, after screaming “Quid Pro Quo” over the BS Trump impeachment, I realized, there’s no waking him. My words were as follows:
“I’m done. It’s becoming infuriating to try and get you to think for yourself. You will accept what your told and obey no matter how far this country falls under the crook you worship. Trump has his faults, but he benefited this country. You’ll call him the devil regardless because that’s what you’re told to do. You’re one of the lost and I’ll waste no more time on you. There are other people who are on the fence that have hope. You’ll accept what the TV tells you regardless of what I point out
You will project and make excuses while our country falls to ruin, the whole way down. I have no use for continued association”
I've had to give up at least 20 friendships like that this year.
It's both sad, and uplifting.
I've had to stop talking to family members who have their heads firmly planted and refuse to listen to anything but MSM propaganda. Full blown TDS (still!) mixed with the alphabet soup warrior mentality. Too exhausting to maintain.
Agree it's left a mixed bag of emotions, but I can only take so much!
The only thing different between family members and people who aren't related by blood is genetic lottery.
Agree wholeheartedly. Like you said, it stinks but is liberating at the same time.
This. Very this it raises the blood pressure way to much.
