It's very frustrating.
What I've seen when I bring what's happening up to family members step one is denial "oh he's not doing that" step 2 is defend "well it's probably for the best, kids do yern for the mines".
Nothing is convincing.
Stages of grief. Most are just getting to denial.
My 90 year old grandma has moved onto bargaining. She's trying to write a letter to DJT to "warn him about Musk"
Not bad progress, considering I couldn't get her to budge at all over the past decade.
That's kind of adorable.
Exactly. It doesn't only apply to grief — any major change of beliefs will need to go through this process... unfortunately.
