    You can’t logic someone out of a belief they didn’t logic into.

    They’re all feelings. You gotta get them afraid of the right things. Like billionaires.

        Mark Twain said it is much easier to fool someone than it is to convince them they are being fooled.

        I did the “ok, but why” argument with a MAGA I am forced to interact with on the trans issue.

        He ended up admitting how “well, what am I supposed to do if I meet a really cute girl, and we go out, and then she had a penis!” I dunno, what would you do there? Maybe realize something about yourself and stop being a hateful fuck.
