Don’t worry. Just talked to someone today that was absolutely confident that no one knows what he was convicted of and it wasn’t unanimous. So they won’t have to worry about a “felon” in office. It’s simple really.
The part that really scares me aren’t the loons disconnected from reality, but the normal people who cannot believe that there are such stupid people in the world.
Just constantly and for ever going around thinking, “I can fix them if I tell them Y!”. No. No you cannot. They are idiots emotionally vested in NOT believing reality. You cannot fix them by reminding them of what they’re actively ignoring…
Not really, or at least that isn’t primarily what’s happening now. I can’t speak for everyone but I take issue with their blatant refusal to acknowledge facts as facts. Opinions are by definition subjective. Facts are not.
For example, if you repeat Trump’s lies when he says “I never said ‘lock her up’.” then that is not an opinion, that is a factually incorrect statement. There are tons of ways to prove that he did in fact say that on multiple occasions. You don’t get to hide behind ignorance when you’re wrong about an objective fact. It doesn’t stop them from trying but it doesn’t change reality either. That’s the kind of thing people get shit on for most. Not policy disagreements or whatever else conservatives want to pretend they’re being shit on for.
