I'd soon think of a way to not have that person in my life any longer.
I wish it were easier to cut them loose, but it feels like I’d be turning my back on someone who needs help, not more isolation. Even their partner has now started echoing their beliefs, and I suspect it’s among the reasons their adult kids don’t talk to them. That said, I personally suspect that conspiracy theories function like a virus of the mind, and I’m wary of waiting around for one I might prove vulnerable against. I think it will end in us parting ways soon because of their beliefs.
Slightly more extreme than your average (I hope)
