I'm not putting that SHIT in my garden! Have you ever seen what OTHER products they sell? It's all pest control. Bugs, mites, rodents, everything. What they DON'T tell you is that the Miracle Grow is designed to make your plants WEAK so that you have to buy their OTHER products and keep the pests at bay!"

what-the-hell

You literally cannot have a conversation with him where he doesn't bring up some deranged conspiracy theory. I would hate to see his browser history tbh.

It's pretty funny because for the most part we get on, and he's one of those anti-establishment conservative types. We can have a political conversation and agree with each other about absolutely everything (the common man gets screwed by big corporations etc etc) until the second we start talking about who we think is responsible, or who the "bad guy" is because I'm all "It's fucking Jeff Bezos and the billionaires obviously" and he starts ranting about the World Economic Forum and Bilberburgs and "THE GLOBAL CENTRAL BANK!!!!!1", oh and the fucking second that China gets brought up it activates the reactionary in him Manchurian Candidate style.

But we can also talk about plants because we both like to grow shit, so that's nice neutral territory (for the most part as long as I don't bring up Miracle Grow LMAO).

    Well yes, but his takes always have this sinister illuminati vibe to them, not just normal business people going about their business and defending their own class interests. It's not about class to him it's all a CONSPIRACY

            They're kept locked up when not in use, like the rifles in Switzerland

      You know what? He might be interested in a Parenti lecture that talks about conspiracy theory:
