For a lot of things, when I tell my family members (husband & kids) things (not just political stuff but about anything) they either didn't listen or thought I was nuts. It always seems to take another person to tell them what I told them to believe it, and they would always come to tell me what they learned from someone else like it was new awesome info. I would look at them like WTH, and say I've been telling you that for forever and now that someone else says it, it's magically important 😒😤 So flipping frustrating.
I think that is probably the nature of humans, but consider this: you planted a seed in their subconscious; it just took another person to make the seed emerge.

I Understand Completely...😏😉🤣
I know exactly what you mean! Go through the same thing with my family, also.
Glad I'm not the only one, lol.
I think there are many like us in this same situation.
Hoping they fully come around, as I am starting to see a little more willingness to hear what I have to say. A good sign!

That's a nice way to see it, thanks fren, makes me feel better. Here I was just thinking my family thought I was not smart enough to know things, lol.
People want to believe that THEY'VE discovered the truth.
