The main reasons to 'change sides' so to speak is to simply get a vote in their primaries. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 child) I get in there, once I'm trusted I talk about what they actually want from society, and then subtly make a pointed question if thats what the GOP is doing. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but I always get them to question things and thats the most important part. Soon it won't be enough though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 child) Tried it; it doesn't matter, in my experience. Conformity is way more important to these folks than they pretend, and once something like this starts getting traction, it gets labelled a thought crime and sealed away. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago Did you actually build a relationship? Or just talk to someone in public? If you dont get to a first name basis its not gonna work. Its ass but, a lot of these people aren't hate filled monsters. The wools been pulled over their eyes.
