Hey Mastodon I ned some help.

An increasing number if people in my life are becoming #conspiracytheory nutjobs and I don't know what to do.

At first it was just one or two peripheral friends so I could just stop talking with them or ignore the crazy stuff they said, but now its closer friends and family.
Does anyone have any good resources or tips on how to handle this?

I know a fair bit about the theories as I have been interested in them for a long time, but it has been from a debunking POV since nothing ever seems solid enough to warrant any belief.
This knowledge doesn't seem to be relevant though since "you can't reason someone out of an oppinion they didn't reason themselves into".

I would appreciate any and all input on deprogramming techniques, support groups etc.
Feel free to boost for visibility.

Thanks in advance 😚
