6. You cannot reason with these people...

... they have NO capacity for critical thinking. They fixate on their preferred narrative, and no amount of rock-hard, irrefutable evidence to the contrary will cause them to doubt the lies to which they cling with irrational ferocity. They'd carve out their own eyeballs with a rusty spoon before they'd EVER admit that they were wrong.

Like this pitiful clown, they are write-offs. It's a total waste of time and energy to even engage with them. They're not worth the effort. Believe me, I've tried, and that was with family members, co-workers, and a bully berating a young retail clerk because she looked at his hat.

I need more coffee.
