    They’re also showing a pretty textbook example of Never Play Defense from the alt-right playbook. I’m honestly not sure why I engaged with them for the length of time I did, but I looked back at the flow of the conversation and it was something like:


    Me: This article being repeated at the frequency it is, is propaganda

    They: You’re saying Biden’s going to win the election, let me attack that viewpoint

    Me: Biden’s record is actually pretty good, whereas Trump is the end of the world, that seems relevant

    They: You’re saying CNN’s reporting of Biden is factually wrong

    Me: It’s relevant that Trump is the end of the world

    They: You’re saying we should ban CNN


    Actually typing it out in summary, I have no clue WTF I was thinking with continuing the conversation that long 🤣
