This question’s on my mind because my coworker today mentioned they would vote for Trump if they could (mind you this is 2023, in Canada). I don’t generally have the talking points or the desire to fight about it, so I just deflected the conversation. But I often wish I was more strong-willed and could try to figure out why someone believes what they do and, if it’s invalid, then convince them otherwise.

Thus, I’m curious what you all would say or what you’ve done in the past!

    It’s a values thing.

    Trump and those like him victimize my friends, are massive bigots, and the whole christofascist thing is just inherently fucked up.

    Maybe there are Trump voters that aren’t those things, but that just means they’re fine with that shit

    I wouldn’t be friends with someone like that
