I decided to try to toss some red pills my sister's way today. It took a lot of courage to try and I was immediately insulted by her suggesting that I wasn't well informed. OMG I hate the MSM and I hate the Dems so much right now. My sister, sadly is a victim of the propaganda and likely thinks that her favorite news sources are gospel. I have more things to say to her but I don't want to ruin our relationship.

This is the same sister who said if you vote for Mitt Romney you must hate me because Obama gave me healthcare. She likes Planned Parenthood too because of women's health (and she's gone there for checkups before).

It breaks my heart because she's not dumb, she's just surrounded by people who all think that way.

I would but I decided to talk to her a little about Google because this is something she has a big stake in (I won't go into why). She dismissed the idea of censorship being a thing (that's what the ill informed comment came about from) and went on to argue about how it's a private company and blah blah blah.

I replied to her that I was aware they are a private company duh. I love how easily people presume to know what you know once you dare speak ill of one of their sacred cows.

Yeah I know. I had a difficult conversation with my dad awhile back. He's the most irrational person ever when it comes to politics and I hazarded a delicate conversation with him. That was a scary convo… if I mentioned ANYTHING that went outside his conceptualization of 'the narrative' he would immediately scream FOX NEWS! LIES!!!

It was scary. Fortunately he did not seem to hold a grudge. I gave him a hug afterward and decided to try again in the future. Maybe if Trump is ever exonerated of Russian collusion he'll come around but i doubt it.

I swear to you this is what actually happened and I don't wish this sort of experience on ANYONE.

It's funny because I don't think my sister even knew I lean conservative. I almost never talk politics with her. When we do I usually let her say whatever she likes and just nod or offer a few derivative remarks. I don't like to rock the boat because my father is such an insane person when it comes to politics.

So she said this incredibly condescending thing "well if you're going to be dipping your toes into this conservative thing, why don't you try these websites:" and gave me two links. I'm like OMFG you're going to tell me where to get my news from to be a proper conservative now? good lord.
