We spend a lot of time together. We live less than 15 minutes apart. Work in the same room and carpool to work. My best friend is a middle of the road anti-conspiracy (left or right) libertarian. Doesn't share any feelings about Trump/Biden/Killery or anyone else. I stopped talking politics with him. I only give quick comments to stories we here on the news driving in to work, which he never responds to.
He will only vote for the Libertarian candidate no matter who it is. He is blind to the bigger picture that is right in front of his eyes as large as life. It's frustrating. I just pray for him.
He is vaxxed and will get vaxxed again if needed. For a libertarian he has a odd trust in system. I dont' get it.
The most perplexing thing is that he is one of the most intelligent people I have EVER known. It's mind boggling. His head is buried so deep in the sand only his toes are poking out.
How can someone be wired to be incredibly intelligent but not see what's in front of them?
The only thing that makes sense is the sad fact that he is 100% an atheist. I have become a VERY devout follower of Lord Jesus. He wants nothing to do with it.
I will keep praying for his salvation and giving praise to the lord.
Maybe appeal to the inner conscience.
Make clear that one's own actions, or inactions, affect everyone else.
Mask wearers are a good example of this. They comply and hurt everyone by doing so.
