Do you know how to deal with an irrational or illogical person?

6. I understand, that's why my Ignore list is big. I don't miss those who use snarks and curses.

As far as dealing with irrational and illogical people IRL, I handle them like a small child or a dog. After a while, though it wears on one, anywhere.

When someone is being purposefully hurtful, it's hard to handle physically and I've taken nolabear's advice on this a while back, to get up and walk away.

I don't come here to have to fight with someone, to 'win' over them to feel the thrill of some ephemeral victory. I come here to learn from fellow Democrats and progressives, not have to defend myself from wing nut talking points no matter how they're dressed up.

And not to laugh at someone else's pain even if I don't understand it. I'm sorry that you have to stop posting for a while and hope the election goes as it should.
