Waiting in line to get my taxes done today with AARP.

Sat next to a pleasant old guy and struck up a conversation. I said I’m not donating 3$ to the presidential election because the billionaires can pay their own way. He said yes. Trump could give him the money since he was going to win anyway. And had I heard that Bloomberg was having HRC as his running mate? I said that this was a joke, but no, he assured me... it was true because it was on the news this morning. I asked him if he had heard this on Fox News and he said yes indeed, Fox News. So of course he knew that it was true. He said that Bloomberg better watch his steps because with her for a running mate, someone was certain to “do him in.” He added that at least we didn’t have to worry about Biden since he was the biggest crook of all, placing his son on the government payroll where he proceeded to rob them blind.

I just nodded and excused myself to use the ladies room, and on my return, finding another seat.

As another DUer said here a few days ago, I don’t have the experience to deprogram cult members, so I just step away. I’m never entirely sure when they will begin to seizure and foam at the mouth. That much kool aid is extremely toxic and at some point the human brain will have to rebel and cleanse itself. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want any of that saliva getting on me.
Aaarrrrgghhhhh!

1. I am always nice, we were raised to be. But, I think I am at the point I would sit there pondering,

looking him in the eyes and telling him, I think I will find another seat. You did the same, just nice. I am done with that. Not to the point of mean, but clear my reason.

2. You really can't deprogram them. Fox is doing a really good job keeping them in the fold.

3. In opposite world lies are truth.

They believe Opinion as news.

4. The best response?

Just say "I don't agree. Excuse me." And leave. They are baffled that the conversation has been cut without giving them an opportunity to give a rebuttal.

We are not here to "fix" these idiots. They are not fixable, cannot be educated and they cannot be argued with.

We must out number them. End. Of. Story.

5. Yes!

6. He certainly got the hint when I sat in a different chair.

But I don’t care. As my Freddie said, Any way the Wind Blows, Doesn't Really Matter to me. They are dung beetles bloated on shit, and I only raise my blood pressure in any confrontation with them.

You are absolutely right... the sane ones must out vote the zombie apocalypse.
