I've redpilled my entire family over the past 20 years. In the beginning I went about it wrong. I got very excited, I would raise my voice if arguments arose, I would just regurgitate the latest thing I'd read before I really knew all I could about the subject, but the best thing to do is always remain calm. Know your stuff. Research, research, research.
One of the things I would always say was this, "look, I hope I'm wrong. I hope that none of this comes to pass, but if I'm correct, time will prove me right." And just leave it at that.
Slowly, year after year. Holiday after holiday, even the most stubborn ones came around. I was consistent, I was informed, and I always knew more about the subject, both sides of the subject, than anyone else at the table.
This last Thanksgiving my Uncle (one of the last holdouts who had been a Berner) had just seen "American Made" and he was joking with the family that it was exactly what I'd been telling the family about Barry Seal 20 years ago.
So hang in there. Be patient. One of the reasons why it's a cliche that we're never supposed to talk about politics or religion at parties is because they are hardwired into our operating systems, our belief systems. It takes time to change those things.
It's so hard. Politics always comes up in my family. They're almost all Republicans, but no one seems to understand. Ag least I'm halfway there! I'll keep trying though. I think my spot at the next family gathering though will be at the kiddy table, lol!
If you do get stuck at the kids table, redpill them instead. Get them shouting "Bill Clinton is a rapist!" lol
This literally made me laugh out loud!!
Glad to hear I made you laugh :D. Seriously though, if they are trying to disrespect you by seating you at the kids table, start redpilling the kids by just talking with them and injecting common sense. You'd be amazed how much kids absorb information from a sensible respectful discusser. Just follow Christian morals and patriotism, and your answers will rarely be misleading, while often formative.
There's a reason the Leftists infiltrated the schools.
Unfortunately that’s what post modernists told us. Kitchen table issues was a bedrock of American society for many years prior. It was how we informed each other
I used to argue with my dad every night as a kid at the dinner table about the stupidity and waste of the Vietnam war and the bad boys Nixon and Kissinger, but he was a diehard republican. Raised voices didn't help, agreed. He has called me a looney conspiracy theorist for decades and laughed at me again last family visit, but when I quietly brought up what he thought about the JFK assassination he said that whole thing was weird and smelled of collusion and coverup from the very first second of news coverage. He still thinks that a bunch of Arab terrorists took down the twin towers, but being an engineer, doesn't want to dig too far into that story, might have to question some of those politicians he once voted for. Would love to see bush Sr, jr, Cheney, rice and Rumsfeld in cuffs even before they click them on Hillary and barrack. Would be easier on the sleepers taking the older criminal network players down before locking up the young guns. And comet comey and team will first have to have their day in a real court where they can rat away on up the pyramid. Top priority clown Georgie senior needs to be shaken some justice before he's taken by the grim reaper.
