Conversations with my [socialist] relations:
Me: Have you heard about hydroxychloroquine being used to solve COVID? Say, you have lupus what script do you use?
Kinfolk: There’s been no clinical trial results yet. The media keeps saying the results are just anecdotal.
Me: So how have you been holding up during self-isolation?
Kinfolk: I’m doing everything the CDC is telling me. Staying home and washing everything.
Me: And, is self-isolation slowing the spread of COVID?
Kinfolk: Of course it is!
Me: How do YOU know it’s working? Have you been tested?
Kinfolk: No, but I haven’t been sick, I don’t have the virus.
Me: So, all you have is anecdotal evidence?
Kinfolk: ;-/
Trolling socialists is so much fun.
I talked on the phone with a socialist relative yesterday and I try to keep it friendly and respectful but there are so many things I can’t touch. I mentioned about the hydroxy and immediately “Oh not tested, dangerous side effects, and all the lupus patients can’t get any”, said in “that” tone. The tone of automaton/heard it on the news.
Sigh....
