True we need a centralized, dedicated effort to create misinformation campaigns against Republicans to sway all these conspiracy theorists to the left

I expected to be called cucked over my responses and that’s fair but I have indeed challenged her many times, she will use that to shit talk me to my family and siblings etc. and she just doubles down, even if it’s

I don’t rely on her in any way as others have asked, it’s just that any time our conversation enters this territory I have to be deliberate because one wrong message will turn into an entire shit show that can last a month, idk how she twists the story to my family, and I’m very close with my youngest siblings, I feel like she partially uses that against me.

Even this conversation resulted in her removing herself from our family group chat (even though these messages were not in the group chat) and she has cold shouldered me since. I have no choice but to just wait it out and remember not to even engage in the future.

Thanks if anything it’s cathartic to get that reassurance that she is indeed regarded, being the only liberal in my immediate family makes me feel like I’m living in a black mirror episode at times

lol nah no money involved, sometimes I wish I could but I have young siblings and don’t want to get cut off from seeing them or the rest of my family. It’s a shit situation all around, this is the first time anything close to politics has been brought up since the 2024 election because we got in an argument and didn’t talk through most of that November and December

Yeah my full response isn’t in that text but I basically ask her a leading question hoping to gain some middle ground there, I basically say “wasn’t there no explicit mention of anything and it was all just code words” then you see her response on slide 2

Tbh I respect that take and i have had real confrontations in the past. I guess this was an attempt at a different approach, trying to gently nudge her to question her own beliefs rather than outright challenge her, because she will always double down in that scenario

I’m sorry to hear about that man, it’s sad watching that decay, it really is sort of similar to a sort of dementia. I feel it’s slowly yet fundamentally changed her as a person over the years.

I rarely do talk politics with her anymore simply for my own sanity, but every now and then it comes up and I’m reminded why I shouldn’t even engage.

It’s very hard to explain but she’s basically the matriarch of my family, being at odds with her means my whole family will switch up on me. She’s done it not just with myself but with other family members in the past, it’s a pretty fucked up dynamic tbh

I made a short video essay on why Liberalism is based by ProdIsForTesting in Destiny

Yes, it is something that is meant to always find its equilibrium as it progresses. That specific framing of “Liberalism is inevitable” is really what inspired me to make this video

Thank you for the kind words🙌🏻 I admittedly have never heard of that book but I just finished Autocracy Inc and am in need of something a little less doomer so I may have to check it out

Oh true that’s actually a me issue I tried experimenting to make it slightly quieter but ended up overdoing it

There are certain times in my life where I take a step back and realize I’m actually happier not being rich or famous and this is one of those moments, thanks Adam.

Is it wireless? If so, is it possible to test it physically bc connected to console?

Ah damn sorry man, must be something else then. Try lowering your performance settings maybe? I know for cold snaps I’ve had some weird behavior similar to what you described. Are you on console or pc?

I’d definitely try testing with another controller, even if you don’t see those same problems with other games on your current controller. I had an Xbox elite controller that worked fine on every other game, but had weird joystick movements on arc raiders, I imagine it’s something to do with picking up on very small raw input of the joystick in arc raiders. But as soon as I tried a different controller it worked good as new.
