    First of all: kudos to you for still not having given up talking to that guy. I think I can imagine that frustration.

    Maybe, instead of pointing out the contradiction, you can try to make him realize how the lack of due process, locking up protestors and keeping groups of people out of leadership positions will hurt him in the end.

      Thanks for the kudos. I mostly keep in contact because we grew up close as kids all the way through college. He got wrapped up into the manosphere crap during the pandemic so for me it’s a relatively recent thing.

      I will certainly keep trying and give your advice a shot.
