Go read the shit over on r/conservative, and then tell me you think you can reason with those people.

Remember friend, the loudest minority seem to make the majority. You will make no progress with that mindset and only further this class/political division that keeps us from rising up against the oppressors.

Try to find humanity in your enemy

think you can reason with those people.

They are bots. The ones who upvote are bots, the ones who give those horrible takes are bots, and the small minority that do the same thing but more haphazardly are smoothbrains who don't realize they're in the company of bots.

my elderly neighbor voted for trump, and my good friend from 2nd grade voted for trump. I asked them if they wanted to ban all muslims like he promised the first time around and to look me in the eye when they answer since half my family is muslim. They couldn't. they turned away and brushed it off because they know they are voting for evil shit. But they sure do exist out there.
