Example: border crisis - "If you support illegal border crossings / catch and release, you support human trafficking and the literal mass raping of womenn and children, human slavery and murder.”

Sit back and watchh heads explode.

They will just say you're are wrong and a racist.

If you show them statistics, they will ignore them.

"People in poverty need money, so give them money." "The homeless need homes, so give them unused hotel rooms."

You're asking them to think something through. Most are not willing to. And to be honest, those solutions do work, they just have unintended consequences. People like you and I would think about those, and weigh it all out and conclude the plan would be a failure.

They only see the immediate effect and claim victory.

This is the persistent problem with them. And I’ve run into it time and time again. They’ll argue against logic to the point of saying absolutely ridiculous things just to double down and not consider what you’re saying to be true. And if you speak to their emotions, you will make some progress but they don’t like that state of uncomfortable feelings and will go back to their old think because it feels better than the truth.

Consequently most of the libs I’ve experienced this with are women and weak beta men.
