Perhaps you can also arrange a real live visit from Ted Cruz.

I would find it very difficult to live under your circumstances for very long once I realized what I was up against. I just am not that tolerant of such radical ways of thinking or behavior regardless of the relationship.

If you are not able to reason with her regarding a more acceptable manner and behavior, you are in for a miserable life in the coming months and years. You seem to have already had enough to share on this forum and are looking for advice. Only you can make that decision.

I hope it works out for both of you. Just remember some liberal thinking folks can make life a bad situation for those that don't share their values.

The best to you in the days ahead.

Your wife's behavior is obviously insufferable for you. If you don't want to suffer it, you only have 2 options, you can end the relationship or change her behaviour. To change her behaviour, you need to motivate her to do so. You should know well, after 33 years of marriage, what motivates her. You might have to cut off all affection. You might have to argue your point logically. You might have to yell and make a scene. There might be nothing you can do if she no longer respects and loves you.

You need to think about what you need to do to get her to make the change in behavior you want and then do it.

What kind of activist? Greta Thunberg or mixing it up with ICE on the street day to day? I could turn Greta around but them other folks hate this country to the point they are beyond changing.

In the earlier thread, the OP said she hands out free condoms and needles to gays and druggies.

Sounds like she ain't done with the menopause.
Some of them don't come out of it until its time to go looking for the shovel.

Also, her freaking out about politics is not her fault. It is your fault. That's another indication that she ain't done with the menopause yet.
Deep inside, she probably still blames you for her going through the menopause.

The real truth is that it really isn't her fault. There is nowhere that she can go to get the "truth" anymore.
I can't find anywhere to find the truth. I have to depend on my ability to use logic and reason. Too many women (and men too) can't seem to separate emotion from logic and reason in their thought processes.

I'd prepare for her eventual full time commitment in her other world

Is there anything about your wife that you like enough to want to keep her? If so what?

Buy a van and go live down by the river until she misses you and begs you to come back.

As long as you are getting it on like donkey kong 5-7 times a day, it is ok to overlook the rest.


I have nothing clever to put here.
