Anyway. I probably won't be posting here for a long while, if ever.
I thought I would try to talk to people who seemed legitimately terrified of a Biden win and spinning fantasies about Trump overturning the election, and see if it was possible to explain to them why Trump wasn't going to win and why they didn't need to be scared and angry about it.
To be honest, I think the attempt was a failure. The conspiracy theorists still seem just as devoted as ever. The fact that literally nothing has materialized to support their beliefs hasn't changed their minds, and nothing I have said seem to either.
The scared folks just seem to have jumped to "scared and angry".
I appreciate the tolerance and kindness I have been shown. Whatever happens the next few months, take care of yourselves and be well.
