If you used to listen to Rush Limbaugh do what he did, he planted a little seed, fed things in small doses, he never dumped the whole package on people all at once (over, and over, and over) with passionate (to use a kind word) rants, Rush kept it light and led people to think they thought of it themselves.
I love having people and family a year or two down the road lecturing me with what used to be my own conservative points and them thinking they are educating me to right thinking.
Good for you!
The first step for me would probably be to somehow stop feeling so desperate. And to somehow find a way to trust that the people in my life aren’t totally brainwashed.
In the past I tried doing what you describe on social media, but it seemed like nobody was willing to consider anything I said. I suppose I was probably doing it wrong.
So I guess what I hear you saying is that trying to wake people up by showing them the big picture is not the way to go.
