Is your dad lost in lies too?
My dad's mind is colonized by religious,
Right-wing, and conspiracy theories-
Not much room left for critical thinking.
His mental highways are slippery slope,
Showing signs of abnormalities.
He can't help it; he convinces himself
To follow cult-like figures.
Fact-checking puts him at odds
With his long-held beliefs and traditions.
Among millions of Americans,
He's one of those who denies the 2020 election results,
Much like the 174 Republican representatives.
Itās been over a decade,
And he still canāt give up Fox News.
Entangled in faulty wires,
Hope holds him captive,
Turning away from the reality of science.
Reluctant to consider independent sources.
Walking further and faster, from factsĀ andĀ realities.
