This is off-topic, but have you had any luck convincing any of them? I like to hear rhetoric that has worked.

One, my cousin. It only worked because we had a special connection even within the family as being the only two males our age.

I appealed to his sense of nervousness for the future, I identified with his economic and social fears (he was on his way to inceldom at a rapid pace), I shared my own fears that aligned with him: Never owning a house, not being able to afford a family, not even really being able to afford to date or socialize. Being one accident away from poverty.

I reminded him of the minorities he was involved with on a daily basis and asked him of any of them came even close to fitting the stereotypes he kept saying about them.

After he began to come to terms with this, I started bringing up the direct policy choices that have been responsible for our current economic stagnation were almost universally Republican driven policy changes, and the fact that SCOTUS almost exclusively votes in favor of corporate interest in the last 40 years.

I also agreed with him that the dems were ALMOST as bad, but confronted him with statements made by AOC, Franken and Bernie that actively spoke out in favor of the worker and the student, something I CHALLENGED him to find a modern parallel to in the republican party. He could find zero examples.

But as he was searching, he did start to see that what republicans WERE saying about workers rights was that they needed to be restricted. I think that’s when the class betrayal the GOP heaped on him sunk in.

It took a while, wasn’t always forward momentum, and he hasn’t committed to voting blue yet, but he won’t vote cheetolini in any circumstance as he now realizes that the twice impeached one is a traitor to our democracy.
