Meh, had an argument with the sister. About Antifa/BLM primarily, the discussion started with me asking her what she thought of the death penalty. She's against it mostly. I'm for it, mostly. She brings up how she went to college for a degree in criminal justice. I bring up how i've seen plenty of videos and articles about antifa/blm, and how they're criminals with long rap sheets, etc. She tells me i've been watching deepfakes and reading propaganda (presumably from Russia, though she never actually specified that). She basically parrots a lot of the same talking points of Democrats and RINOs, and doesn't even realize she is (she gets mad that i group her with democrats/rinos, though i only said she parrots them, which she was). If i bring up how communists have infiltrated the education system (amongst other systems), she gets extremely offended and accuses me of being uncivil and rude. Then she reminds me that she paid a lot of money and spent a lot of time in college learning her opinions, and implies that i don't know how to read the FBI statistics on crime by race. "Blacks don't actually commit more crime, cops just choose to arrest more blacks because reasons." These are all arguments i've considered earlier in my thought process and thrown out. And I didn't even need to go to college for it, though i'll admit she does make a ton of money repeating her opinions (wrong or otherwise).

Do college degrees automatically make a person impossible to disagree with? Are non-college degrees automatically wrong? I'm truly curious what the protocol is here. Am I supposed to just believe everything she says because she makes more?

Or was she in the wrong? Thanks for reading my blog
