Personal examples: I can name several such people, some of whom are in the United States National Guard, one of whom specifically was interviewed by Newsweek for being one of the jackboots who cleared Lafayette Square so Asset Krasnov could hold a Bible upside down. I grew up with the asshole. He was on record blubbering about how hard it was on the Guard to be being fascist (not his exact words, but the gist of it). He’s also all over Facebook spouting some of the most hateful rhetoric you’ll see outside Stormfront.
I used to try to get thoughts across to him, to see his point of view and help him see mine. Then I realized it is utterly futile to try with him and people like him, as they only use words as a means of deception rather than communication.
