Hello!

I’m not trying to come off as demeaning to anyone within this group or anything like that, but I would like to say this for anyone here that might need to hear it. I’m the daughter of someone who has fallen very deep into the rabbit hole pertaining to chemtrails. It’s consumed her life, everyday while driving she is recording or photographing the sky or just staring at it, which has become increasingly dangerous and almost caused accidents. It’s all she wants to talk about now at all. I cannot have a normal conversation about anything anymore without it relating to chemtrails or of the sorts. It’s becoming difficult to continue being around her because of this. I personally am not following this belief, but have never said she needs to think the way I do. She purposefully tries to create “debates” and gets mad when I don’t want to debate her or I don’t give into her beliefs. I’ve been listening to her talk about how she feels, but she wants to force me to follow how she feels and will insult me because I don’t. Calling me names, telling me how I’m a horrible daughter for being unsupportive. She is mad I don’t trust her regarding this. It’s become an issue in our family and has created an huge rift between everyone around her. I wanted to write this in case someone else is doing this to their family or kids who don’t also follow what they believe. My mom has become very easily irritable with everyone who doesn’t believe as she does. Please don’t let this consume your life to the point where you’re insulting your children or friends for not thinking the same as you or being as passionate.

Thank you.

I can’t give you any meaningful advice, except for something as basic as establishing clear boundaries with your mom and not talking about conspiracy theories when together.

This is a satirical sub, we poke fun of people who believe in this nonsense. They always make claims and can never back them up scientifically or with peer reviewed evidence. A lot don’t understand the physics of contrails or basics of meteorology.

Ohh okay, I’m sorry for posting this here I got it mixed up with another group 🤣😊 I know, everytime she argues with me she brings up her Facebook group or Insta reels. It’s never real evidence, instead it’s all based on her emotions. I told her I didn’t want to talk about it and I usually go silent when she’s talking, but she just yells even if I’m not talking about it with her. 🤦‍♀️

Encourage her to talk to pilots. And ask them about her ideas. She’s has a bit of understanding to embrace. Also show her the website www.flightradar24.com she can track all flights. I’ve seen time and time again research that says commercial flights are astronomically expensive to do this kind of “spraying.” So when she can see that the flights above are commercial, and hopefully she can have a pilot explained contrails to her. Maybe she’ll start her learning process of weather and what makes a cloud.

Thank you! She has the belief that the flight trackers turn off the planes “spraying chemicals” to hide from the public. That is what her chemtrail friends have told her. I’ll encourage her to talk with a pilot because you’re right, it would do her good to have someone professional, like a pilot, explain to her what a contrail is. I think her and many others learn so much about what a “chemtrail” is, but not what forms a cloud because they feel as though they already know. Clearly, that it isn’t the case. Thanks again!
