Here’s my take on this whole thing, like you’ve been awaiting my words of wisdom forever.....
My father has recently discovered people like this and did not realize just how irrational, nonsensical and wrong they could be and would never be open to suggestion to the fact that they could be mistaken.
There’s absolutely no discussion you can have with mentally unstable or ill people that can convince them they are unstable or ill. We all know this. I summed it up like this; you cannot expect irrational people to behave in a rational matter. To expect otherwise is a fools folly.
If nothing else people like this are just so much fun to bait and make melt down. I almost wish I were in college these days because there would be a trail of tears left in my wake.
Y’know, I know that Conservatives are supposed to have a reputation as being ‘tough as nails ‘. Despite that, I have a (possibly mistaken) soft spot for people who are in desperate need of help...like these DUmmies.
I was discussing it this morning with my wife. “ What can be done to help these people? “ Neither one of us was able to come up with an answer. How do you help people who are so far gone in their thinking that it seems that a
nothing you try would work?
What is the answer?
Deportation?
Permanent hospitalization?
Mass euthanasia?
(I suspect the only thing that WILL work is a relationship with Jesus Christ, but your garden-variety DUmmy wants nothing to do with “the invisible sky fairy” , as they so quaintly put it.)
