One of my 2 liberal daughters seems to be coming over from the dark side, the other one (in order to not admit she might have been wrong) is becoming a non player.
One of the reasons I don't talk politics to one of my kids right now is that I don't want him to say things that are so demonstrably untrue and then have his ego dig in. In the meantime, I am hoping his obsession with GME is a red pill high-colonic.
If he can understand that one part of the system/establishment is corrupt and untrustworthy...he will have an easier time when he learns it was ALL criminal. Media, DC, charities, medical industry/big pharma, NATO, social media, UN, WHO, CDC, all of it. Gotta start somewhere with most people.
That's what I am hoping. I mentioned the "suicide" of McAfee and he actually laughed. The GME boards on Reddit have some red pilled commenters - some might even be plants. But whatever it takes to wake him up.
I’m very proud of the job I did with my adult kids. My son calls himself a libertarian. My youngest claims not to talk politics but her statements reflect she is hard right. She has no tolerance for her peers “bullshit”. My only problem is my oldest. She is a teacher. Gotta hand it to her though. She homeschooled her two boys through this. So maybe she is awake and can’t admit it.

Progress takes time and love despite the flaws you see; they'll come around :D
