  • You say that like I’m the problem here. As if I don’t actively resist MAGA and MAGA thinking. Should I just completely abandon my friend and let him become an even worse version of himself, or should I apply resistance to his line of thought and help him see why he’s wrong?

    Further polarization of the population only makes the issue worse, but do not for a second mistake my sentiment for idle support or acceptance.

    I’m pretty staunchly left leaning and am friends with a MAGA supporter. If anything, he isn’t an outright bad person, he’s just…really ignorant and holds some very warped and manipulated views of reality. He tends to just see headlines and not think critically about what information he accepts as fact, instead operating primarily on emotion (shocker). I feel like I’ve changed his mind on a few things, but I’ll certainly never dig him entirely out of that trench, not that that’s really my place or goal. These days we mostly just avoid talking politics, probably because he’s sick of me debunking all the crap that comes out of his mouth lol.
