Myth talkers. I am going to start testing it on the Trump voters I know. I feel it is my duty to challenge The myth talkers every chance I get.
I understand why some people do not want to talk to the myth talkers. They are too far gone, they don't believe in reality anymore. I get it.
However, I believe it is far worse letting these lunatics walk freely about spreading their disease unchallenged. I believe all them of them should be challenged at every opportunity. You can do it without starting an argument. Tell the truth and say to them, you are wrong. You will be proven wrong and you will be embarrassed. I don't get into shouting matches with them.
I know I have the truth on my side and I use it. Yes, it does feel like a waste of time but it must be done and in time some of them will come around. You can only hide from the truth for so long.

(31,464 posts)Because its fun. And hes so pathetic hes funny. Hes thoroughly bought into the whole Deep State thing. Hes convinced that the whole Trump/Russia thing is just the liberal media covering up the massive investigation currently going on into Obama and Hillary, which will shock us all when it is finally revealed. Anything Trump says he accepts as truth. Ive told him flat-out that Im trolling him because hes such a comical, easy mark. That just makes him double down. The scary thing is that there are so many out there just like him.
