This question’s on my mind because my coworker today mentioned they would vote for Trump if they could (mind you this is 2023, in Canada). I don’t generally have the talking points or the desire to fight about it, so I just deflected the conversation. But I often wish I was more strong-willed and could try to figure out why someone believes what they do and, if it’s invalid, then convince them otherwise.

Thus, I’m curious what you all would say or what you’ve done in the past!

    at this point I simply refer to them as “cooked” and refuse to further engage until they stop blindly reading cooker shit and rejoin reality, then we will talk.

    literally told my mum that today and no regrets. no more pussyfooting around extremists
