I’ve come to realize that my parents would be Nazi supporters in 1930s Germany
I probably will. They know I think it after many discussions but I haven’t said it. They are so dug in they won’t change or actually hear me. I’ve publicly called out their covid is a democrat conspiracy Facebook posts and unfriended (before leaving Facebook myself). I have told them to remember that I warned them 12 years ago that they are going down a path that’s on the wrong side of history
