I’ve actually been in this position. Here’s what they say:
“Oh.”
“Huh.”
“I hear ya.”
“I dunno, man.”
Or they just leave a thumbs up emoji. End of discussion. But they’ll continue believing the belief you just disproved as fervently as if you hadn’t said anything at all.
Receipts have value when they get accepted as proof. Proof and rationality no longer have any value for them. Emotions drove them to the positions they cling to, and no rational argument, no matter how sound, will make them abandon their cause.
It’s why I stopped arguing with MAGA orcs because they are incapable of doubting their orange Sauron.
Or they block you when you hit them with facts they can’t wrap their heads around.
I’m making a “George Soros for president 2028” shirt. Just as a conversation starter.
Awwww, they’re just upset because they’re being judge by the content of their character and not their color.
If they have on a red hat, fuck them. I hope they meet an early fate.
I raed a quote somewhere that was to the effect of,
When a culture dies, it becomes a religion
I think thats whats happening here
What receipts are we talking about?
Don’t read to me
I saw one the other day, “this country is doomed if we don’t stop with the gotcha politics!” Either in response to that MAGA politician in MN who got arrested for soliciting sex with a minor after screaming about protecting children……or possibly after the news about the Trump administration deporting the family and their U.S. citizen child who was in treatment for cancer (days after they acted so outraged about Democrats not clapping for the kid with cancer at the joint session of Congress).
They absolutely believe that none of their hypocritical or downright evil actions should ever get called out or mentioned, but they get to scream all day about Democrats incessantly and really amp up the outrage over it.
I actually don’t even know how to wrap my head around it. It’s strange talking to these people online who are essentially brainwashed. There’s just, ‘nothing there’ in terms of having a rational, fact based conversation. It’s scary. These people are confidently outspoken, while being completely ignorant and misguided.

“why are you attacking me”
Conservatism is a mental illness
They are incapable of thinking for themselves

I’ve had some tell me I’m gaslighting them.
Hey red caps, did you know Trump’s first term is responsible for 19% of the national debt? And that’s from a guy that doesn’t over a year golfing.
