Had a discussion with my wife’s parents the other day. They thought it was hilarious. They laughed, alternating between mockery of the poor and “nobody helped me so everybody should suffer!”
She said maybe it’s time to go no-contact.
Going no contact is a lot easier than it sounds: the biggest issue is “them” not respecting your new boundaries.
My biggest piece of advice is to never respond to them. The ‘keeping silent and ghosting’ part can be a challenge.
Ultimately, though, you owe them nothing but your happiness.
I have a relative who has been on medicaid on and off who “doesn’t pay attention to politics”. I frequently explain current events to them- like efforts to cut medicaid that may cause them to lose their coverage.
The obliviousness (or complacency, in many cases) of some people is unbelievable.
Fun fact: everyone who didn’t vote for Hitler made it through the war with a 100% clean conscience, and did not regret any other inactions. /s
Reminder that Hitler lost the election. The liberals endorsed a conservative candidate in the name of unity, who won, and proceeded to staff the government with Nazis and made Hitler chancellor, in the name of unity.
The left, cursed with Casandra Syndrome, campaigned on “A vote for Hindenburg is a vote for Hitler is a vote for war.”
In the end, many of them did end up supporting Hindenburg. But liberals will always see the left as a greater threat than fascists.
