    Hey covid will still kill you even if you call it a hoax.
    Rep: you God damn liberals are ruining this county Several family members die
    Rep: they died of pneumonia not covid covid is a hoax and a Chinese bioweapon.

    Like I can’t tell that they actually give a fuck about reality anymore even when they can directly see it killing them they still deny it.

        So how do you combat that if even their family dying around them isn’t enough to get them to even consider those people on tv might have lied to them?

            This. I had to finally cut out a conservative friend after a long run of various nonsense, far from the least of which was him shushing me for being “too political” saying I want our half hour busses back - right before him and his girlfriend talked guns and other pointed “conservative” interests for an hour.

            I was just there for them to flex on and outnumber for fun. We have common interests and used to discuss and enjoy them together, her included, but without any of our other friends around to put weight on the balance they could indulge in their favorite past time - Dunking on librulz.
