Vietnam, came to the US when he was 16 and he’s lived in the US for more than 2/3rds of his life
Ye
I expected your dad to be like some down south redneck.
How’s elderly Asian man into all this nut conspiracy lmao
This s*** makes no sense
I mean it’s hard especially since he’s your dad. In my experience no parent is willing to listen to there kids no matter how much sense the kid makes.
I’d try to get him out and do more activities that involve more people of color.
I don’t know how old your dad is but there’s communities with senior activities, some are even online now.
It’s hard to get him out now cause of COVID but I’d say finding a hobby with him might keep him distracted. Hopefully with trump out of office he goes back to “normal”
"When I ask him for proof, he shows me some Facebook meme/post."
He cant be that far gone because this is exactly what most people do these days
Op its time to put him down
op purposely gonna give him the boomer remover

I’d blame Facebook. S***s cancer on the older generation. If one person they know shares something stupid then most of them will. Then they usually end up in a bubble of “safe” media accounts. And they believe more stuff easily without facts.

All of his viet friends have the same beliefs as him, maybe not as crazy
life is pretty much the same. he's had the same job and no deaths or crazy things happening. We would watch ABC nightly news with Dianne Sawyer during dinners sometimes and that was it. When I go downstairs now, I see him watch OAN/Newsmax and random conspiracy videos while he's browsing facebook. the only thing that changed really is how much time and attention he spends on politics
Has he always been into politics? If not, what other stuff/interest took its place?
The fact that there's probably thousands of people exactly like your dad right now is frightening

Way more than thousands bro

the only times hed get politcal was during presidential elections. Before covid, he was working out hella, biking, camping, gardening and making some good homebrews. with the weather being bad and covid going on, he spends a lot of his time inside

Half of the voting population.
we're asian
Oh s*** what the f*** I thought Asians would be smarter to not fall for this s***

Did your dad vote for Obama?
Op have you checked out subreddit r/qanoncasualties it’s super malicious how conspiracy nuts are targeting innocent people cooped up in their homes
Did your dad vote for Obama?
no, he only votes R. He said the good thing about obama being president is that it shows america is not racist and coloured people can become president too. Also, he likes trump as a business man because it shows you don't have to be in politics to become a president.

Oh I see how it is
What does your dad do for a living? (If you don't mind me asking)
I used to be like this back when George floyd movement started but not that bad, luckily I realized I was spending way too much time thinking about negative s*** and driving myself crazy so I stopped caring about politics significantly. Hopefully your dad can pu out of it but if he's older which im assuming he is itll def be harder for him to give up on that
so you still racist you just stopped caring?

Seems like he was predisposed to these type of beliefs, but the sensationalist/conspiracy right wing media has gotten a hold of him since there is nothing else to consume his time with.
