Words, more words, and then more words.
How is this? People are nuts. And they are getting nuttier by the day?
Or not.
I am a cranky old bastard that increasingly feels like my country is an insane asylum.
Unfortunately it appears that the freaks, however few, have enough hangers on that they constitute a majority, or at least a sizable minority.
We can continue to try and ignore and shun the freaks, but what will really be happening is that the few remaining sane people will be the ones that are ignored and shunned.
Talking about it seems futile as the freaks don't seem open to rational arguments.
I understand your frustration. I really wish there were a successful way of pushing back on this freakishness, but it appears they are on a roll and will be so for some time to come.
