I have a relative that I live with I am having an issue with. Every conversation eventually reverts to the woe of the day... the bad condition of the world; either the political corruption, genetically modified food, the evils of Monsanto, Fukushima, chem trails, drones, Big Pharma, the most recent government coverup, 9/11 coverup, and on and on. At one time I resigned myself to listening to his diatribe over the Sandy Hook "conspiracy" for the rest of my life. He has no other interest other than finding the most recent blog post or news about the woes of the world. If we're sitting together he's got an alarming article he HAS to read me. I am usually busy doing my own thing - but I have to drop what I am doing to give my undivided attention to this new disastrous discovery. It seems there's no end to the reading - it's not like it's a short article. He drones on & on; one disastrous article after the other. Alex Jones videos, or any other of his resources he checks ALL day long and wants me to see them & comment on them.

I cannot totally dismiss some of the things he brings up, I partly believe some of it, although I question the sources. Just because someone makes a statement in a blog doesn't make it so. Although I have NO confidence in our government, and I believe bits and pieces of the articles, I am not consumed by them. Besides it being a real downer I have a life to live and I don't want to dwell on these subjects 24/7. I have my own interests. But any effort I make to either change the subject or say "enough", he accuses me of burying my head in the sand like an ostrich.

How about it? Anyone else live with someone like this? How can I keep peace without having my head drilled every day over the woe(s) of the day?
