My neighbor, whose son is my 12yo's bff, is a Trumper. I am friendly with him and his wife and let him hunt on my land, and I don't bring up politics with them.
A couple weeks ago while we were cutting a fallen tree off the fence, he asked if we were getting vaccinated, and I said for sure. He went off on a rant about everything from vaccines not approved by the FDA to voting machine fraud.
I lost my cool and yelled at him. He said, "The truth will come out." I said, "It will. And if Trump should have won, I'll suck your cock."
I want to get better at reasoning with these people, but I've got no idea how.
(Everyone over 16 in our house has gotten their first shots now! Hooray!)

Taking the high road for fake internet points.

I found it's been impossible to convince certain people because they are so far detached from reality and uneducated + too sure of themselve

Don’t waste your time “trying to get through” to Re-Trump-licans. You’re just going to lose I.Q. Points.

You will never win. They pick up a stupid idea IN SPITE of all evidence. BECAUSE of no evidence. You can't compete. Not even in the game.

Yeah, but have you tried just not caring?

That's a hilarious response to an argument.

I know. They make me irrational. I wish I could be better than that.

Is he hot? Do you want to suck his cock anyway?? I ask because I don't care about politics.

Nope. I said it because it would be a high price to pay.

Ask him "if the vaccine is so bad, why did trump take credit for it?"

To reason with people like that, I go deep. Get inside why they think the way they do. Ask “Why do you think that?” and listen a lot.

If you ask the right question in the right way at the right time, if can stick with them.

I agree.A friend suggested a book called 'Thinking Fast and Slow' that apparently has similar advice. I def need more study, so ima get it.
