Responded to his shitty Biden Crackpipe meme with the :citations-needed: episode criticizing the Biden response to this absolute shitshow of racist misinformation. His initial response was “I don’t know what reality is anymore”. When I suggested it’s clearly not listening to :live-tucker-reaction: shit. He is like “but my property rights”.

    I have chud family and mutual hatred of libs doesn't work, because the connection a chud expects from you is mutual racism. They don't define libs in the same way we do. Once you reject racism, homophobia, transpobia, etc, you are a lib to them. Once you bring out the scary theory words, you're worse than a lib.

    The only instances I've ever gotten chuds to reconsider their stances wasn't during a discussion, it was during a unionization petition where we embarrassed the chuds into shutting up and signing the paper to get better pay.

      Oh yes, mutual distaste for libs is far from agreement, but I'm pointing to the immediate barrier. OP's post hints at the family member having a false consciousness on class and that's screwing up the ability to even communicate.
