You're right, and I struggle with this issue. I don't want them living in my head rent-free, but I also don't want them running the government and destroying our democracy. It's almost impossible to engage in good faith, and stooping to their level isn't generally constructive. I'm not sure what needs to be done, but I guess I need to stop being incredulous that people actually believe their propaganda and find a way to negate their influence in whatever small ways are available to me.
