How do you redpill someone like a close friend or brother who has TDS but you don't wanna to risk losing them because their wife is the one brainwashing them? I think he's really a centrist/libertarian. He at least knows Biden is a poor candidate just from casually watching the regular news occasionally. Between his wife and everything else, he's convinced that Trump is a "racist mofo" and will never vote for him. I really don't won't to risk angering the wife. It will never end.

No way they can argue when Trump wins in a landslide with record high Black Latin and Gay voter turnout. Just have to let them see it for themselves that's why Trump has let us suffer through the last 4 years of attacks from all over to strategically open everyone's eyes to who the real enemy is. Have faith be open and respectful they will come to you for answers when they start to awaken.

Great idea. I think causally showing him that Trump gets minority/ gay vote might go a long way.

One positive thing so far... He lives in a big city and can't stand the riots/violence. Maybe I can build off that.

47 years to enact the changes he’s proposing and did nothing. Trump has done everything he promised with the exception of health care and that wasn’t his fault. Biden is a career politician and liar.

He probably just heard it repeated over and over by the news and his wife and friends.

Try to get them to take a step back. Show them infographics of the media hierarchy. Show them how all media is owned by six corporations, and those six are themselves owned by three international organizations. Some of the more detailed infographics will show how what appears to be different channels, different studios, different magazines, different publishers, are all actually owned by the same corporation. This is how they produce such a controlled and uniform message.

Call it the corporate media. Explain that their agenda is not our agenda. Their agenda is profit and control. And how do they do that? They do it by amplifying fear and division. Reporting good news wouldn’t get them clicks. Real extended subtle dialogues between different views - instead of screaming talking heads in ten-second sound bites - wouldn’t get them ratings. People instinctually know this is true and the left have already been indoctrinated to hate corporations, so they are open to the idea that the corporate media isn’t their friend.

Make it emotional. Explain that the corporate media wants to keep everyone in a constant state of fear and agitation. Then explain that you just couldn’t go down that dark path with them. You had to check out for your own mental and emotional health. Leftists don’t expect us to talk like that and it should register with them. They will start to think about the state of fear and agitation they are constantly in. Then start using examples. All the ways the corporate media has used fear and division. Make it personal. Make it about how you couldn’t continue to function believing all their fear-mongering. This neutralizes most counter-arguments because what are they going to say? You SHOULD live in constant fear? You SHOULD stay jacked into the corporate media? Anyway, they aren’t likely to disagree with any of this. They will probably assume you are talking about Fox News. And that’s fine. But get them to see that the other corporations are just as bad as Fox News.

Sounds like he's already kind of sold and just needs permission to let himself off the hook. I think a simple, "you know what happens in that booth is between you and God, everyone else only knows what you tell them"

There’s a post on here citing a fifth Noble peace prize nomination. Provide them with a copy of the story, and ask them how a president who is a racist Notsi would be spreading peace all over the world?

Love me some candace owens. Yeah, i think if he just watched a few videos like these all the way through, he may be convinced. Getting hime to watch without forcing on him is the harder part.
