I’ve realized that one of my favorite ways to end a conversation with someone going on about bullshit I completely disagree with but don’t have the energy to fight is simply saying:

“Yeah, listen, I’ll tell you what….”

And then saying nothing and leaving.

@LeoBurr @Preston I like to ask them questions like “And you were convinced by that?”, “That seemed like a good plan to you?”, “You think that’s what they think?”.

@RetsenTanuki @Preston This requires further undesired interaction.

@LeoBurr @Preston true. But it lets you plant the seeds of doubt in them.

@RetsenTanuki @Preston No one is so certain that they’re correct as an utter moron.
