Reform, and the death of the Tory Party

[AndyRM]

I’m in the company of a reform boot licker tomorrow. How can I make her see that Farage is a bad man?

Is there a need to, or anything to be gained by trying?

 

[First Aspect]

Yeah the only option with the politically gormless is to ask fairly open questions or to deflect.

With the elderly gormless in my family I also sometimes say things like, I am not sure whether... Or, I worry a bit that...

Occasionally this induces some thought, but tends not to change views. Avoids arguments though.

Straight out of the Trump playbook.

Her grandmother fled from Austria to escape the Nazis.

Surprised he didn't call her 'piggy'.

Give him time.

Give him time.

He wasn't quick witted enough. I'd guess he would have loved to use that retort.

It would stop the delusion been constantly banged on about.

Talk about something else then?

If you're determined to make someone see something, well, that's on you.

Why would you expect to get a workable answer on here?

You used to be able to. I’m living in the CC past.

Well then talk about something else? You're not giving us much context.

Someone else at Dulwich College prepared to be named.

Well as far as I can tell from the main forum, just start talking about sprockets and cotter pins. This will place the listener into a coma regardless of political persuasion.

The other approach, if you can stomach it, is to be enthusiastically racist while you agree with their Reform supporting views.

If nothing else you may learn something about them. (A bit like talking to a neighbour about problems with tradesmen not turning up, and finding out that THEIR problem with tradesmen is some of them not going home.)

The art is not to let one's eyebrows give the game away.

Don't mention disc brakes.
