I said niaid spent 500k on transgender monkeys and they said please no talk of politics, I said how is our tax dollars getting spent political. They can’t hear anything because they’ve just tuned out and are hyper sensitive. I can’t wait until the storm comes and they start asking what’s up. They won’t be able to handle the truth.

Consider picking up some books that teach persuasion basics.
Persuasion 101: Facts are NOT persuasive until after a person has been persuaded to listen to you and consider what you have to say.
Ignoring the need to first establish a bond with the person you want to persuade, called pacing, suggests the desire to persuade isn't genuine.
Scott Adams introductory book on persuasion, "How to Win Bigly" uses Trump to illustrate basic techniques so its doubly useful since it gives insights into Trump too. Scott considers Trump to be a genius tier persuader; possibly the greatest of all time; definitely the greatest in his life time. I agree with Scott.
Bottom line, coming off as an adversary or teacher/preacher invites a defensive reaction and rejection. These invitations are usually accepted. Then the person who issued the invite rEEEEEeees about it. 🤔
Reminder: Qs approach is to inspire curiosity using evocative images, links and questions. Each person responds in their own way and in their own time.
Consider learning from Q if you really want to connect with those you claim to care about. If you don't genuinely care about them, why would they listen to you?
