The truth of the matter is that the skill of critical thinking is learned through a rigorous process of higher education and/or a job that requires it. I don't know the education level of your wife but we tend to become mentally stuck in our ways as adults. If your wife was not trained to think critically and to constantly critically assess the world against fact and evidence then it will most likely be too late for her, and any other adult, who has not carried that way of thinking into adulthood.

I've always said, you don't just marry your wife, you marry her family. Brehs need to be smarter and more strategic about your marital decisions. If your wife's family is uneducated, there is a high chance that that mentality is going to pass down to your kids. People that are highly educated or have high wealth, more likely than not, come from families that are highly educated or highly wealthy.

I'm almost of the opinion that it is genetic. Brehs need to marry "up" to ensure the best possible outcomes for their kids. You have to think about your future kids.

The flat earth and most of that goofy shyt your wife believes May be be Fake and/or exaggerated.

However..... look at your chart.

The bottom are things that once were considered on the level of qanon
The next row... is mostly shyt we know is true and will find out for sure is true in 5-20 yrs.

Parts of what your wife believes is true (like global collusion in some areas)

So you're mostly a Drone and Pawn minded nikka who believes the Mainstream story on every issue like an idiot. Cool.

But if you want more common groud with her then point out True conspiracy and break down How we know these things are true... why and how the government covered it up and the current proof we have now. Train her to come up with a system that divides thing into categories of suspicion and fact.

Cheat on her and when she finds out, tell her it's a conspiracy to get you


More seriously: just buy her a book on logical fallacies.

What's going on is that her ego and her emotions are getting in the way of her critical thinking skills OR conspiracy rhetoric is fooling her (or both). You gotta get her to train these skills so that they override her feelings.

It won't happen overnight, but if you participate and are able to pinpoint precisely what makes sense and what doesn't in a conspiracy argument, you'll get her out of this phase.

You got this!

Edit: don't be too overbearing tho

Also, they even make cards and games for this that you could play with her

but how does she feel about Trump? :patrice:

I feel like the answer you gave doesn't fly, because Trump himself was trying to tell black ppl that we shouldn't be interested in politics. :patrice:

She grew up a Jehovah's Witness. Couldn't care less about Trump or politics. Believes everything is by design.
