We had dinner last night with friends we met a year ago. They are intelligent and very religious he is a deacon in their church. They are very kind snd funny and a delight to be around.
We never ever discussed politics because we are white and they are black. We went to their Baptist church and we could feel the leanings of politics. We do however discuss the divide and bigotry.
Yesterday we were discussing how much hate everyone has. His wife stated I cant believe what comes out of MTG mouth. I never heard such hateful words from someone. She needs thrown out.
I smiled and looked at her and said hello have you ever met Hillary Clinton.
She stated oh no she never said anything like that. She never conducts herself in that manner. I insisted she does and she commented I would like to see that.
My husband stated she plays to her audience. I added did you see her when she went to a church in the south and all of a sudden she is speaking with a black southern accent?
They looked at me like I was crazy.
We ended the discussion.
My husband and I at that moment realized that people believe the news only. There is so much brainwashing and in no way are people awake. Nothing on the news tells these people anything.
The whole experience yesterday has upset me because I really believed people were awake.
My two cents.
Thank you. We want to approach this delicately because we really live these two and don't want to ruin the friendship.
Just found another red-pill. Why is the one country that Trump and Giulliani were investigating, now the country that Biden continues wanting and giving our money too?
Great question.
Just stole it off of GAB.
Questions are definitely the way to go. That way they explore the small cracks in their mindset that you can't see, until they find the light on their own.
I have had similar experiences; it is agonizing to see people clinging to their blindness like children hanging on to a comforter. I'm dealing with a family now who are actually very sick with Covid, isolating and still afraid to take ivermectin.
I understand. Try watching their News Channels and find something you know is NOT true, then present them a question to go along with it. See if they can give you the 'reasoning' behind their answer. Such as, 'Why did inflation suddenly start to rise after Biden took office?" "Why did Biden not do anything about the spy balloon from China when it flew across every military base in the United States?" Show them some charts and graphs of when Trump was President and how well the economy was doing for the first question, and then see if there is some pictures online of the balloon and any Truthful news ops that will ask that question and answer it in the best way. Simply trying to help you my friend. Good luck. I have an Aunt who is like them. She of course, is a hard case and so will have to find out the hard way. God bless you both.
