Folks who do not stay current with the news and live in their own self imposed bubble coming to you with bits and pieces and questions. Then when you ask questions to clarify just what it is that is being asked and make any sort of sense of it they get mad at you and the fight starts.

Some individuals use statistics as a drunk man uses lamp-posts — for support rather than for illumination.

I don't interact with many on a daily basis so I can avoid such encounters. But I am sure it will happen in the near future. Lots of leftys out there uninformed and will remain that way. Many that live in that bubble and like being miserable.

Never argue with an idiot..............

You'll never change their minds anyway, and you still only have one vote.I don't talk politics or religion with anyone unless I know them very well, even then....
Weed out the ones you need to remove including relatives, life gets easier then.....

Nope , I just tell them I don't watch tv , don't know anything about it and they stomp off unable to argue.


but if they do tell you about some injustice , it usually involves a call to action that is time or money
they do not like it when you say , you should do some something about that because that somebody guy just never looks into it.

or if you ask how do they think we should pay for that ?

America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Many prefer darkness to the light of truth. I get it all the time.
