God, i got one person who's a crypto bro and talks about Trump 'destroying the deep state' and another who watches Ben Shapiro and praised Musk for bringing back 'free speech' by allowing racist 'jokes' on Twitter, jokes which he of course finds hilarious. The latter also thinks western civilization is in some form of moral decay, apparently. Then i got another racist who once did blackface, came up to me and said 'haha look at me, don't i look like a (slur)'. Oh, and of course i (sadly) know a lib who genuinely thinks Russia will invade Europe after Ukraine. I questioned them on this, and their reasoning was 'well, they're russians. that's just what russians do.'

Every single person i know is like this. I am in hell

The best part about being visibly queer is that most these folk self-select their way out of your life. Zest your way through.

I talked my father into thinking china is good. He says it is cause they keep the globalists out. Baby steps. Each one of these people hate liberals, and are soft targets. You should crush them.

Each one of these people hate liberals,

They are just confused liberals themselves. Self hating fools who've been tricked by rich parasites to punch down. Remind them they're libs too, its hilarious

The West is in a state of moral decay. Always has been. Just not for the reasons he thinks.

Destroying the deep state while Elon and Matt Gaetz are in your cabinet is crazy. Like you have documentation of the pedophilia and they just fucking murked Epstein after it was a big story. Then all they can talk about in congress is how much they want people to suffer and how genocide is actually... le good! What do you need a deep state for? The deepest part is what they're getting delivered for lunch. That's the only pertinent part that you'd need a FOIA request to learn about. The nightmares of yesteryear that would be in hushed whispers and coded language is the soup du jour.

People are idiots and it's why democratic centralism is the only system that makes sense.

Death to America

They just kinda go along with it.

After all, if one's raised by news media that not only convinces them its in their self-interest, but livelihood, then of course, you get people like that...

Those people got their brains fried by the media, they are not inherently idiots.

Are they acquaintances or friends/family? Either way, probably not worth your mental anguish to keep letting the behavior slide. I would probably do one of 2 things, confront and challenge their shitty rhetorics, or stop associating with them altogether. The later being the the least detrimental to your safety probably.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 22 hours ago

family members and family friends. I live right next door to two of them, which would be nice if they didn't act like this.

I've tried to challenge their rhetoric but it feels to me as other treat it as a game. Like i once regularly had conversation with one of them about their beliefs but it just turned into debates which were more about 'winning' than anything And it just feels so weird talking to these people. They talk to me as if they're trying to groom me into their fascistic ideology. Acting all civil and nice. Like i know that you're a racist freak and think all communists should be sent to camps, don't pull this shit on me.
