She is stuck on that side. If she knows some kind of news or information is not sanctioned by Fox News she automatically either avoids listening to it in the first place, or discounts it immediately. Even on just local news (and this is a very conservative area, at least this half of the state) if they say something about gay people, or just mention a gay event and if they don’t immediately say something negative about it, she just rolls her eyes.
Even with a TV show she likes, if gay characters do a gay thing (omg 2 dudes kissing!) she will literally make the noise… Umm what is the word for it… Retching, I think? Whatever the barf noise is called.
She will literally make that noise and look away from the screen.
There is nothing rational about this kind of behavior, you can’t win this argument. The chess board is already on the floor here.
So I don’t know anything about that documentary, but if she has any reason to think it’s not sponsored by Fox News, it’s literally just fiction at best and “Communist Marxist propaganda” at worst.
Yeah that’s sad but I can completely understand. Religions have been abusing this for eons and now it’s being used directly for a political ideology. There comes a point where reason doesn’t even matter.
You should try to sit down with her and watch, “The Brainwashing of my Dad” documentary. See if anything resonates with her at all.
Alternatively remind her that the RNC had Clint Eastwood speak at the convention, talking to an empty chair strangely…
