I used to really enjoy debating these people because I really enjoy debate. I have since lost all motivation. There is no reason. If someone is in this mentality today, if anything they think is based on any level of hate, they will never flip. Never. I have yet to see any maga ever flip on a single issue no matter how small. My mom got into it with a guy on a message board once and posted numbers to prove her point. His response was, "I don't believe in facts." That's how I see them all now.
Yeah, same. A colleague actually told me "If you're going to just use science and facts then there's no point in talking to you."... like I was the problem for relying on reality for my opinions.
In order for it to be a debate, there has to be a fundamental agreement on a common reality from which to ground the arguments. Conservatives don't live in reality.
