Any attempt to point out they have zero understanding or credentials is met with aggression, and nobody that hasn't lost their mind has the energy to deal with it anymore. It's honestly really damaging my faith in humanity, as extreme as that may sound.

I hear ya! We keep having that conversation at our house too. Humans are a flawed species.

Oh man, I am genuinely sorry to hear that. I'm fortunate that no one in my immediate family got like that. I do have to work with people like that though, they seem to believe that just because people refuse to continue arguing with them that they must be right about it all.

Sadly it’s my parents too. They are elderly & they have gotten very sick a few times (they won’t test) & my dad has accelerated into dementia after their latest “cold”. The arrogance they have acquired is based on Fox News, Facebook & other sm (don’t even want to know where my bro goes) is baseless.

Oh geez, I hope you're doing alright. I don't know if I could've made it in your position... I always figured I was the most likely (of my family) to become conspiracy-brained, but my family kind of kept me level headed
