And we've been trolling cons for like a full day with this. I did this to my trump loving aunt on her Facebook. She got super mad and deleted me off Facebook. She was the last holdout that refused to unfriend me no matter what I commented on her brain dead posts.

Congrats!

Yeah, the trial verdict really pisses off conservatives. A coworker was a Nikki Haley supporter. I thought she’d be annoyed, but not too angry, because I thought she’d given up on Trump. Wrong!

She usually knows better than to talk politics with me, but she had to vent about the Trump trial. Of course, she blamed everyone but him.

To avoid making her even angrier, I pretended to remain neutral, claiming that I didn’t know much and hadn’t really been following the trial, but secretly I was enjoying every bit of her Fox News-parroting tantrum. She’s good at her job, but a malleable idiot when it comes to politics.

To avoid making her even angrier

Stop doing that; she doesn't deserve it. Moreover, excessive tolerance is how we got into this mess.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 15 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I see your point, but when I have to work side by side with someone for several hours, I prefer that they not be seething at me lol

[–] grue@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I mean, it's risky, but if you do it right maybe you could trigger her enough to blow up and get fired without getting in trouble yourself? Fascist fucks deserve that, too.

[–] helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Nah, she'll call harassment of her beliefs or something and twist so OP is the bad guy.

[–] asteriskeverything@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Lol yeah keyword there is coworker though.

There are fantastic ways to politely and without any blame making people feel stupid enough to shut up, or make them backpedal and change the subject. Knowing your audience helps too, who else is there and what their politics are. I don't think that comes naturally to anyone really though. Not most.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

It's true. If they're so easily manipulated, they'll follow suit with the masses if enough of the other side are there and loud enough.

Though, I also blame that tactic for how divided the US seems to be in general.

Same, walking into work this morning, guy says something about them fucking trump over and then asks what I think about trump and I tell him he doesn’t want to know, it’s a five minute walk from there to where we work in the building.
