From all the concern trolling I see in the other instances it's clear that there's no winning over these people. Everything is "Kremlin propaganda" to them. I do think a lot of chapos did go a little overboard with the PPB, but even thoughtful responses were met with the "hateful rhetoric" and "Kremlin talking points" BS. As always, it is to the Global South we must look to for any hope in the future...

Idk may just be my personal experience but I've never heard anyone irl say anything close to as weird about geopolitical stuff or communism as I've seen from liberals since federation.

Back when the SMO started in early 2022, I was hanging out with some ppl IRL and one of them just blatantly said "they should just take him [Putin] out" (as in assassinate him). And this was at a milquetoast event where geopolitics wasn't even the reason we were there (it was a trivia night). So yeah even irl normies have some pretty warped views. Another guy I know just blatantly repeated the "China is buying up all the farmland in the US" nonsense...
