DON'T ARGUE WITH JACKASSES!
The jackass said to the tiger, "The grass is blue."
The tiger replied, "No, the grass is green."
The discussion heated up, and the two decided to submit the matter to arbitration. They went before the lion, the King of the Jungle.
Before reaching the forest clearing where the lion was sitting on his throne, the jackass began to shout, "Your Highness, is it true that the grass is blue?"
The lion replied, "True, the grass is blue."
The jackass hurried and continued, "The tiger disagrees with me and contradicts and annoys me. Please punish him."
The king then declared, "The tiger will be punished with 5 years of silence."
The jackass jumped cheerfully and went on his way, content and repeating, "The grass is blue."
The tiger accepted his punishment but asked the lion, "Your Majesty, why have you punished me? After all, the grass is green."
The lion replied, "In fact, the grass is green."
The tiger asked, "So why are you punishing me?"
The lion replied, "That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green. The punishment is because it is not possible for a brave and intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with a jackass and then come and bother me with that question."
The worst waste of time is arguing with fools and fanatics who do not care about truth or reality but only the victory of their beliefs and illusions. Never waste time on arguments that don't make sense. There are people who, no matter how much evidence we present, are incapable of understanding, and others are blinded by ego, hatred, and resentment. All they want is to be right, even if they are not.
When ignorance screams, intelligence is silent. Your peace and quiet are worth more.

Stolen from FB, just seemed applicable and something to consider....................

' Set the Adolph knob to ten ! That will work ! ' said Kamala as she read the polls from New York, Pennsylvania and Michigan.
Desperation, unable to devise a strategy that doesn't involve schoolyard name calling, immature, ' Orange man bad, deplorables ! '
Imagine attempting to have a political dialog with a man who is illiterate in his native language, a dempartie cult zombie.
See, to him, letters are just squiggly lines, can't read them, can't write them, ' non compos mentis ', like Biden_Joe
