Struck up a conversation with a guy while we were waiting at the baggage claim. He mentioned that his son was a Chicago firefighter, so I asked if he was going to be fired for the jab. He said no, His son took it. He took it. He didn't understand why anyone wouldn't take it. I said its a weird new technology. He said we all took the polio vaccine and it worked. I said, “But they've found covid in animals, its not ever going away. It ‘came from a bat’, right? So unless they vaccinate all the bats...”
I was able to then transition the conversation back to firefighting and how my son loves firetrucks. I think this might be the best way to let the red pill sink in. Drop it quick and jump back out before they get too defensive and emotionally tied to their position.
When most people hear viewpoints their brain doesn't start going "hmm is this true? is this a truth i must now stand up for?", they think "hmmm could i repeat this to people i know and seem smart?". They judge what they believe by what they can defend and what makes them look cool or silly. the times i have seen people's eyes really light up at new ideas is not when they first hear it and realise i am telling then the truth, it's when i wrap it in a pithy and iron clad slogan and a shrug that they realise they too can perfectly replicate to others and look smart
