Slowly and in one or two syllable words.

Drool, drool….”deport brown people,” drool drool, “mainstream media,” drool, drool, “California is burning,” drool, drool, “don’t take my gunz.”

I have found that there are a few things that help when dealing with a MAGA. It’s similar to talking to a narcissist. First, when they make their broad and vague claims, pause for a second and ask for specifics. It normally befuddles them and runs them off by about the third time. Second, slow the conversation down and stay calm. Third, look them straight in the eye, letting them know that you are onto their bs. Finally, when it comes to it, let them know that you are onto their game and tell them flat out that you aren’t going to be gaslighted in a calm manner. These people generally aren’t masterminds by any degree. You just have to flip the script and put them on the defensive.

I tried this approach with my dad last summer. Walked into my folks house and he was yelling about Walz letting his cities burn down. Asked him to tell me more about how these cities burned down and how extensive it was. His response was to scream over and over, “fuck you, boy, fuck you!!”

We gotta be real. Some magats are simply unable to speak about politics in a reasonable manner anymore. They’re gone. It’s sad.

That’s when I raise my eyebrow, give them the look, and tell them that my time is valuable. There is no magic wand with these people. Setting boundaries helps though.

You might have to explain to them what gaslighting is- in differnt simple terms

If it's River what ever his current handle is, it's with grunts.

There's a Rush song for that.

~

All that you can do is wish them well
All that you can do is wish them well

Spirits turned bitter by the poison of envy
Always angry and dissatisfied
Even the lost ones, the frightened and mean ones
Even the ones with a devil inside

Thank your stars you’re not that way
Turn your back and walk away
Don’t even pause and ask them why
Turn around and say goodbye

People who judge without a measure of mercy
All the victims who will never learn
Even the lost ones, you can only give up on
Even the ones who make you burn

The ones who’ve done you wrong
The ones who pretended to be so strong
The grudges you’ve held for so long
It’s not worth singing that same sad song

Even though you’re going through hell
Just keep on going
Let the demons dwell

Just wish them well
