I really think you should talk to more people. Voting for Kamala doesn't make you gay or a commie or whatever else the right says and voting Trump doesn't make you MAGA.

This woman is literally a black queer woman who believes in working class value and has never been told what socialism actually means. She's just uneducated and telling her things is never difficult. She's just prone to believing in lies because she was never taught critical thinking

I think that's absurd

I find it sad most people are this divided over politics. Her opinions are dumb, she's nonthreatening

genuinely made me laugh. she's smart just homeschooled I'm telling you lol

 

I(mid 30s dude) am seeing this lady(mid 30s lady), we have different political opinions and talk pretty openly about it. It's interesting, she voted for Trump, was homeschooled/raised christian, very nationalistic and buys his crypto alongside some other crypto, I bought the Communist manifesto while hanging out with her and express all of my opinions boldly. No issues so far, literally.

However over the last few months I've realized a theme in her beliefs, they're all fringe and fake. She wants to go to a chiropractor, she loves the military and believes Trump is a good guy. She dislikes vaccines and believes in psuedo quack medicine yet smokes and vapes. She's an absolute fool and I know it stems from her homeschooling.

Now I have a pretty strong grasp of history and when we discuss the stuff she doesn't understand I find just talking about the history makes her think at least slightly different. But obviously that isn't gonna work long term.

Now I care about this person, I'm not head over heels in love or anything but I don't want her to be this stupid. I dunno how to flat out tell her, "hey your education was poor and it shows," how do you tell someone they're very ignorant in a way that they can put it together themselves. Honestly truly, how?

I dislike this train of thought entirely.

It happened during the Obama administration but it was in response to shit under Bush from people being critical of him/his admin. Obama did not support Citizens United.
