Sometimes the conversations are beneficial. I was discussing alternatives to the New Green Deal with a hardcore supporter on another site. There are alternatives available that won't 'hit' the poor man first, but instead the corporations. I explained in detail about the creation of renewed mom, and pop cottage industries that could be created. I had other ideas, but........

I was literally told to shut 'my trap you twat', and without addressing any points I raised as possible alternatives to subjugation of people, well, 'your argument is moronic'.

At some point, somewhere I wasn't a 'threat' as such, I guess meaning neo-conservative, and in a friendly, but direct way they proceeded to go on to explain about how all people are stupid, and we need to be told what to do for our 'own good'; we only have 12 years!!!!!!! They really believe that we must submit to all circumstances presented to us, and stated those folks flying around in private jets making speeches on global warming, shouldn't have to fly commercial because of their 'dedication to the cause'.

Just made my head spin, I try to comprehend where folks are coming from; sometimes, meme's like yours hit the nail on the head, LOL.
