To: Behind Liberal Lines

Many years ago, when I was foolish enough to be on Facebook, a lib was bemoaning the evils of big business guys who wouldn’t put solar panels on cars, forcing us to buy their evil oil. After a few seconds of my trying to point out some basic facts, he spewed some of the vilest bilge at me, personally, that I have ever been subjected to. I realized fb wasn’t for me, and also that you can’t reason with the insane, who aren’t looking for answers but rather validation for their whacky thoughts.
Had another fb spat with a lib, successful and highly paid, about poor tenants who punch holes in the tin roofs of their homes and glue in plastic liter bottles filled with water and chlorine. This lets in daylight for free. While the lib thought this was green and awesome, I ruined the thread by pointing out that plastic is photo-reactive and crumbles away in sunshine, at a high speed in the tropics, and then incoming rainwater rots the structure and suggested the tenants use glass bottles instead. For my sins, I was lambasted and removed from the thread. These people are humorless and closed minded.

Mostly, you can’t have an intelligent conversation with someone that is insane. It’s like mud wrestling with a pig. Both of you will get dirty, but the pig thinks its fun.
