I will say that while there are many deranged libs/leftists of the type described by Mr. Voska, I've known any friends, family members, and co-workers though while ardent libs managed to conduct reasonable conversations with me. I will say when I broke ranks several decades ago, it was difficult to have political conversations with the same people as they would start shouting and then I would shout back.

Eventually, I found it much better to let them shout while I would politely refute their arguments. Nothing disconcerts a screaming leftist more than an opponent who smiles at them and calmly rebuts their statements. I'd rather they think about the things I say rather than believe they've won an argument because they outshouted me.

Except one who keeps doing it after the liberal has essentially ordered him or her to shut up.

That'll be the day. These are liberals you're dealing with.
