Welcome to the club my friend. My mom has been this way for years and will no doubt die believing that this election was stolen from Trump due to fraud. It’s completely insane. She has a PHD. I kill her in every argument we have and at the end she still refuses to see the light. There’s likely no way of saving ppl that far gone.
At this point I just refuse to talk about politics with her because it’s infuriating. I could understand if she had valid points, but it’s always Fox News pundits, infowars, Glenn Beck, Rush, Trump and oan news. Been before I even knew what that channel was she told me to watch it because they had such great unbiased news. I watched one segment and couldn’t even believe the propaganda.
The internet aint meant for these old people they got no clue how to distinguish real from fake
Gotta go into their computers and phones and start disliking/un-recommending conspiracy theory content on youtube/facebook.
Only way
nothing wrong with a lot of conspiracy theories, but if you’re spoon fed your theories from a major news channel you’re even more lost than if you don’t believe any at all.
ask them how the election would be a fraud but not the senate elections
I don't get this argument. It's basically admitting that millions of people filled out the ballot for Biden and left the rest of it blank
Most of my fam is the opposite and went full on msnbc liberal lmao
I have a few maga family members though. Just waiting for one of them to turn qanon

honestly they might be too far gone
Nah lol I mean I lean pretty liberal, but to them I’ve been brain washed
And to you they have been brainwashed. Tread lightly, the perception of reality is fickle

These babies don’t either
Look at tiktok
Shouldn’t be hard for you to discredit infowars. Tell them how Infowars reported that Sandy Hook was staged.

in 2020 fox news and cnn put out conspiracy theories and infowars are supposed to be nonpartisan, but ultimately i have no idea what the f*** youre saying.

This. Too much information to consume for those that grew up in a media environment like theirs
They believe that the election was fraud(even though my mother used her mail in ballot) than when asked to give actual evidence to how trump could be winning, she presented me with Newt Gingrich & infowars
Now she sent me some claim how aoc & the Democrats are making a kill list of trump donators, that comes from the gateway pundit, aka Jim Hoft
I’m scared 🥺🥺
Edit: My dad, while upset is understanding & is not being duped by conspiracy theorists
man tell me about it. My parents nigerian but somehow they got corrupted into the mess. Their mostly socially conservative and don't really like trump just like that republicans are pro life and anti lgbtq so they wouldn't even vote otherwise. It's disgusting. Like they no the s*** the side they prefer spews is bullshit but overlook it and fall for the propaganda. I can't make sense of it.
