Everyone I see on a day to day basis is an insufferable normie. All my colleagues, all my family and basically all my friends.

They're all happy that the government is telling us we can't see family at Christmas. They fully support all the lockdowns and vaccines and censorship and all round tyranny.

The worst part is, they never shut the fuck up about it. I can't remember the last time I had a conversation with someone that didn't revolve around this stupid cough or the election.

None of them have a clue what's going on, but they don't let it stop them from arguing whatever the latest talking point is passionately. I'm dealing with people here who don't understand percentages, and hadn't even heard of the electoral college until two days ago.

And according to them, when I try to explain my point of view, I'm a lunatic who only reads conspiracy theories.

I feel like I'm losing my mind. I'm just about ready to cut off all contact with my family because I can't take this anymore. I've never been one to cut people out of my life over politics, but I don't know what else to do at this point.

All I can say is keep a list of whose bullshit you can tolerate because of other positivity they add to your life. Forgive, because many of us (myself included) were normies or only slightly better prior to being red-pilled, but also never forget.

Everyone else who is a net negative can be cut off or appropriately siloed as you deem fit.

Maybe this won't work, but ask them how they know certain things. What color is the sky? Is the Earth round? How far away is the Sun from Earth? If they can realize that a large chunk of their knowledge is provided to them by an authority rather than something they were able to deduce themselves, then perhaps they will be able to understand just how much their perception is imagined rather than set in reality.

You could also go the hyperbole route. Talk about how you support more deaths of despair and poverty from Chinavirus restrictions, and that you want to see more wealth be transferred from America to the globe, and from the poor to the rich.

Other then that, perhaps just limit your exposure to these types. Get off social media and be proactive about finding a circle or circles of like-minded people.
