Current Events > When you have a friend that's just so misinformed

(+) Yeah! (+)

And yet has no self-awareness. Is this what its like when people talk about anti vaxxers or flat earthers? Just total 100% confidence in the most idiotic things without even a hint of reality check? How does someone live that way

Blissfully

Sometimes I dont text a friend back or dont immediately reply (especially when I just have nothing to say to that bizarre paragraph he's just written) and I swear it feels like he says these things to test me and get a rise out of me. Because when we first met 6 years ago I used to get so angry and call him out on his stupidity and then he'd get upset and say stuff like this is who he is and he doesnt need toxic people with bad energy flows, and then spouts some paraphrased marilyn monroe "handle me at my best" shit.

I kind of dont hang out with him much anymore but when he does text it feels like he's trying to provoke a response out of me

I mean seriously, who the hell thinks they've created a magic scanner at airports that detects all viruses and bacteria that are in your body at once as soon as you pass through it. Yes a great tool for a scifi show, but come on dude. How much of a bubble could you possibly be living in.

I'm venting here because I really don't want him to know he's getting to me, I was told that when people do this you should not engage. I always make sure to maintain a poker face around him when he starts saying stuff like that because I know he looks at me to gauge my reaction.
