Sorry, but one reason I shut off the "noise" is because they can never change.
What's the point of having a discussion with a demented and/or mentally ill old man?
All the MAGAts on JPP are Archie Bunker sheeple: opinionated, lower middle-class, fearful. They will never change so why keep trying?
IMHO, a top reason is to display an opposing view...but that's still pissing up a rope because it only invites more stupidity cluttering the internet with white supremacist bullshit.
You're old and smart enough to know the difference between intelligent people and those in the "not so much" category.
I've chosen to stop pissing up a rope and seeking intelligent discussion with people open to new ideas.
Since
@Damocles kept one-way ignoring me with several of his MAGA supporters, I decided several weeks ago to save him the trouble and self-ignore all the stupid, Orange-cock sucking traitors and assholes. All have proven to be evil. It's very sad for them, but also their problem.
