At one point I walked outside to join others in the backyard and they were whispering about my husband and I being “Trump supporters.” They shut up when they saw me and I said, “Damn, that reminds me. I forgot my MAGA hat!”
My husband’s brother, who is hosting the wedding, got Covid last spring and he told me a half-hour story about his battle with it at the kitchen table last night, as if he were a mythological figure. He almost died, actually. Sick for a month.
And I just looked at him and told him his brother—my husband—got it and was able to go back to work in three days after I scored him Ivermectin. And I swear to God, the whole table had like a thick fog come over their eyes and there was just silence. And the mood was that me and my husband were some kind of crazy renegades.
Don’t you think they would have been thrilled for my husband? That he got well!? That he survived? Or interested in how we did it? No, they’re just willing to die. This family, guys, this family is more brainwashed than any group of people that I’ve come across. It’s almost palpable, it’s almost like I can see the thin veils over their heads. It’s just so fricking sad.
And the thing is, they’re so smug. They think they’re soooo right, and soooo smart and so much more enlightened. It’s just unbelievable. You can’t red-pill these people because whenever truth enters the room, they literally zone out. They become zombies.
I’ve never seen anything like it.
I can’t wait to get the hell out of here.
Okay, I found something that has KINDA worked. I mean - they DO often revert back to the dark fog in their minds, but I have gotten a lot of hardcore liberals to listen and believe (for a while) by feigning to be just like them as I excitedly tell them all kinds of truths, with the foundation and starting point always being something they already believe.
Things like election fraud - I start out by sadly recalling the nomination theft Bernie went through TWICE. Most liberals don't like the Hildabeast so I can safely talk about her. I can agree with them about how awful the Rona is and how scary....and then excitedly tell them how hard it was to get HCQ but how doctor friends at a huge nearby hospital were themselves shocked at its efficacy! And so on....
Find the point of agreement and you're in. Example: we all agree that there is a problem with the scandalously huge costs of medical industry that surpass even the problem with insurance affordability. We all agree that fraud was involved in poor Bernie's presidential failures. We agree that politicians are largely corrupt. We agree that massive multi-national corporations are NOT run by terrific people. And so on.
