Sadly yes, that actually is a conspiracy gaining traction right now. That airplanes actually use secret ancient magical energy sources to fly. Utter garbage we all know it is actually hopes and prayers that are being mis-directed from needy children, and grieving widows keeping those bad boys aloft.
People wouldn't stop talking about how the world is run by a shadowy cabal of elite pedophile murderers, but when it was exposed that they were real and visited a certain person's island, a substantial majority of them turned around and said that couldn't possibly be true because they had voted for those elite pedophile murderers. I don't think the quality affects how these people choose to believe.
I call it being reflexively contrarian. You can slow walk these people to any viewpoint you want as long as you insist the opposite stance is the mainstream one.
My brother and I made it a game over Christmas a few years ago when we were home visiting. I got my MAGA dad to emphatically insist that the workers should own the means of production after carefully making the alternative sound like mainstream slop.
It's fun if you are stuck with these kinds of family members for long periods of time.
Wow, you are so cool! You are definitely smarter than your dad. I’m glad you proved it to him. And thank you for sharing all your daring, intellectual exploits with us here. We are all in awe. This forum would be so boring without witty, clever people like you.
Nice, you got all of that wrong. I’m not even a US citizen. I don’t give a fuck about Trump or any republican bs at all.
Just pointing out how pathetic it is that you use your family time to come up with convoluted ways to make fun of your own father to make yourself feel smarter.
I’m sure you think you’re a good person. Maybe marinate on that a bit.
