That has been my experience as well. There are people who truly do not know what is going on and either haven’t the patience to sort it all out, or are so far behind the facts they just need someone to spell it out for them. Those are the ones I engage with. The others, they can rant all their crazy sh** all they want, I’ve gotten to the point where I either challenge them (if I’m in the mood to tangle) or I just laugh at them.
Usually when you beat the crazies, you usually know because they HATE your guts forever.
I’ve made plenty of enemies that way. There was a time I was proud of that fact, not so much anymore. It’s just a reminder that I’ve been wasting my time.
