I feel there is very little we can do individually to change people’s minds or turn them away from fascism, or even to get them to stop turning their own brains into soup, but you can still show them there are consequences to their actions.
Telling my own friends / relations what I think of them and cutting ties with them has done nothing to bring them back in line with normal human values, but at least I am not burdened with the guilt of my association, and maybe one day enough people will cut them off that the loneliness gets to them and they begin to re-evaluate their lives.
It is literally the least I can do. Any sadness I felt was heartbreak that they could be so shitty to begin with.
Its been a year since i stopped talking to my parents and well… First of all they don’t care and second they’re doing better than before… It’s not even politics related even tho they are very fascist they just decided they really didn’t like me post 7 years old
Ya my parents are still imagining that it’s the late 60s. Ya sorry I couldn’t buy a house and have a family like you did even though you none of you went to uni or worked a second job.
