I don't want this to be a political rant, so let me give everyone a bit of back story. I am an Indian, almost my entire family stay in India, and each member has their own political opinion, which I respect but I recently had a one-on-one conversation with my uncle who, I recently discovered, is an extremist and a fascist. I was always treated as "the kid" because I am the youngest member and hence such conversations were avoided but when I spoke to him for the first time there was no one to stop the conversation or assist me. I was alone, but I held my ground and stuck to my morals.

What makes me anxious is the fact that I know that my uncle is a lost cause and no matter what I say or hell even label him, he will never change. His entire Facebook feed is filled with pro-Hindu and anti-Muslim "news" articles and he keeps sharing them for everyone to see (almost everyone knows to ignore those) but what worries me is the fact that he is responsible for these ideologies being spread. I have voiced my concerns but he is a lost cause.

I can't do a social media detox because there are other issues and communications I need to follow.
