I got a friend who’s MAGA and I’ve been talking to her about her politics for a bit and she’s willing to hear me out on my concerns. It’s also black history month, and she knows nothing about black history.

I wanna watch a movie with her or a documentary that dives into modern-day racism without explicitly putting down MAGA/conservatives. My goal is not to insult her or make her feel bad, it’s to educate her, hence why I’m asking.

(Please let me know if something I’ve said is problematic or offensive in some kinda way? Sometimes I word things badly or I will ask things that arent okay and I dont realize it until I hit post, lemme know so I can correct myself for the future thankyuuuu ;w;)

    TLDR; facts and logic arent enough to just change a person’s mind. It takes understanding the individual and having a lotta empathy to break down their defensive walls for them to actually listen to you.

      MAGA IS A MENTAL ILLNESS. People literally revere a guy whose catch phrase is YOU’RE FIRED.

      What miserable piece of shit makes that their catchphrase?
