I don’t bother rebutting conservatives directly/in-depth on the internet anymore because I used to be conservative myself and it’s not a mindset that other people can get you out of. bc the Culture means anyone who disagrees with u is “brainwashed”. so u have to wake up and get urself out of it bc u won’t listen to anyone else
it’s sad but it never matters how many statistics you cite or sources you link with these people; any organization or source they disagree with is brainwashed by liberalism, period. science? objective climate and pollution data, transgender and intersex people existing, things like that? nah fuck that, no one knows more than [one of many old white congressmen who know jack shit about science] and he says zygotes deserve rights but not those damn queers so he’s got my vote right lol 👌
the cringe is fucking unbearable
It was literally soooo easy to just over a few months expose myself to other demographics and read shit and learn shit and just admit I was wrong. Like. It’s okay to change. I’m sure it’s harder for these grown-ass adults than it was for 17yo me, but damn, I promise u it’s worth a shot
I remember Shaun (a left youtube channel) talking about this subject. You literally can’t change these people’s minds unless you expose them to spaces outside of their world view. They just can’t think outside of their bubbles and it sucks but it is what it is.
