John T Phillips, I think it's the latter. Some are too far gone from truth to reach them. But there are others I have found willing to converse and allow me to speak.

You are correct, some of them are too far gone from truth to reach. I did change 2 person's minds, one of the was my ex-wife and the other was my one neighbor that i like. She is a widow who's husband died 5 years ago. About 80% of the voters in the county i live in are gun and rifle toting Donald TUMP fanatics. Those 80% are bona fide Georgia backwoods hicks.

John T Phillips, Great job at pointing them to the truth! Like you, I have been able to also. I know, doing so takes perseverance. It isn't easy, but I think it's why we're here --- to consciously be better and make the world better. It must be difficult for you surrounded by so much fanatical nonsense. I am not sure if I could take that. Keep trying to reach the 20% and I will keep trying to reach the reachable also.

Thank you, very much. I want to tell you what 2 or these TUMP fanatics tried to do to me, there is a gravel road that intersects with the paved road i live on, and these 2 TUMP fanatics, ( A fat guy, and his wife) that lives on that gravel road that i take for a short cut sometimes, and their house is the first house of that gravel road, and one day they tried to block that road and not let me get through, his putrid wife keep waving her arms in a boldly, threatening manner. I thought to myself, ''what are these ignorant a-holes trying to do?'' I just kept going on down the road and when i got to them, i slowed down and gave them both a, '' go to hell look'' and they didn't say one word to me, that guy's wife would not even look at me. If they had said anything to me, i was going straight to the Sheriff's office. That road is county property, and they had no right for doing what they did. They knew i was Democrat by the yard sign with Biden/Harris on it. We also had tires slashed by some of the MAGA wingnuts. I am sick of living among these insane, arrogant misfits. Donald TUMP has did immeasurable damage to the United States. He shouldn't be allowed to live in our nation for what he has did. Send him to Russia to be with Putin, they are so much alike. And take that female Goon, (MTG) with him.

John T Phillips, sorry about those awful things. Keep staying alert and having a plan. Keep sane too. ---- somebody's gotta be. And thanks for the "female goon" laugh!!!

Thanks again, we have discussed a plan recently. My grown daughter, my grandson, and one of my grown sons live here with me, and they all go along with the plan. I only wish that ''female goon'' was not from Georgia, she is pathetic embarrassment to our state and the entire United States. I saw a picture of a Neanderthal man online recently, and except for him having a long beard, his face looked almost exactly like MTG. I suppose she could be a cross between a Neanderthal and a Goon.

Gullible perhaps. Even possibly ignorant. But most apparently needing to identify with someone who speaks to their feelings if not their thoughts and capacity to analyze.

JohnM upstateNY, yes I agree needing to identify, to feel a sense of belonging is a strong attractor for us humans.
