I have people like this in my own family.
It is not worth it to engage with them.
Do not talk politics with certain people. They are irrational and completely unhinged.
These certain people view any disagreement with them on practically any subject, not necessarily political, as a personal threat against them, so react like a cornered animal. They think if you disagree with them you hate them and are out to do them personal bodily harm. In fact I simply pity them.
Completely mentally deranged.
I have those wastrels in my family too. So much time and effort has gone into “understanding them” and “meeting them halfway”. I am done with that. Thus, a haiku:
She’s “schizophrenic,
Paranoid with delusions”
We just say “leftist”
Including a double supersized buttload of so-called evangelical ministers.
Isn't projection enlightening?
