Like ffs. A coworker made an AI powered story reading app for his, is using the kids as test subjects to test the quality of the app and has said that the AI app can get his kids to open up more to it than to him or his wife about their issues. Another coworker finds this interesting.

A third in another separate conversation admitted to going to a white supremacist, neo-nazi concert of some singer and when I said 'he is a nazi' she straight up said 'naah he isn't people are just making things up'. There is literal evidence of him sieg heiling.

I can't anymore, people are just in full on psychosis mode and they just don't see it. I'm giving up on them for real.

people are fundamentally rational, and what they believe is strongly influenced by their material interests. furthermore, there's some truth to everyone's ideology, simply by nature of the fact that it was derived from interacting with the same reality that you and i do. you don't have to become friends or share everything with everyone, but you should be able to find the truth in each person you interact with and latch onto that in almost any non-confrontational setting. i interact with people i significantly disagree with on a regular basis and it doesn't bother me at all anymore, although i admittedly have had a lot of practice.
