Comment by opportune

My biggest concern is how seemingly so many conservative people are becoming huge conspiracy theorists. I don't mean normal conspiracy theories like there being something more behind the JFK assassination, but like QAnon, Bill Gates injecting people with microchips, Pizzagate, etc. A lot of people in my own family in a rather backwards state believe that stuff. It's making me completely lose faith in this country and I'm seriously considering getting out because of this widespread idiocy.

How do you even begin to "meet in the middle" or have reasonable conversations with people who believe in that stuff?

edit: Don't really understand why this was de-nested from the original parent comment down to the third-fourth page :/
