    I love my dad but I don’t engage with him seriously about politics anymore. Specific facts don’t matter, he only cares about “the big picture”…so instead of of arguing, I give him the even bigger picture: none of this shit matters. It’s all a distraction while they rob us blind.

          You can let him feel them now. Join the counter movement and learn how to help rid the world from fascism through talking, protesting, writing. Those are the weapons of a democracy.
