I need this pandemic to be over with soon. I'm stuck home & getting into FB fights w/ libertarians [View all]

I'm afraid I might be accused of child abuse. They honestly make fun of me for using facts in arguments. When I point out they're using their opinions to argue against facts I'm providing links to, they (yes, there's more than one of them, tho thankfully the one who does Tarot Card readings for a living just deleted all my arguments and may've unfriended me) they accuse me of being a sucker for the "corporate press".

If I had a bar to go to or a group art project to get involved with my life would be more fruitful. But I just can't ignore people posting memes and calling them facts.
