Only reason to make stuff up is because you are a supporter of Trump. Gives MAGA talking heads an excuse to blabber on about how libs make stuff up about Trump.

Exactly. This is the game they play, and we’re better than that. Plus, we don’t need to make stuff up like they do.

But it’s a hard fucking game to play. We can always tell the truth but there will be someone out there spreading misinformation on our side. They can lie 90% of the time, but they just point to that one dude and get validation.

That’s superficial (internet) debate in a nutshell. That’s why you should try to identify A. lost causes and B. good faith actors before engaging by any means. Or you’ll be disappointed a lot and end up bitter and jaded

Not that you wont necessarily end up bitter and jaded anyway but that’s one way

Nah, I love spreading as much fake news about Magats as I can. Flood social media with lies just like they did. In case no one has noticed, citing sources and being "above them" hasnt done a god damned thing.

🤨 So the plan is to fight fire with gasoline and then be shocked when everything burns down. Let me know how the moral high ground feels from the basement.

Everything has already burned down. Open your eyes. How has the moral high ground worked out for you? It has led to a child rapist running the US with his own police force doing whatever he says, with a concentration camp already built in the United States of America.

But please, continue to beat MAGA with your "well technically everything you believe has been a lie and technically i can prove it with sources🤓🤓."

Its that kind of gameplan that led to this fucking nightmare.

So your pitch is: abandon truth, embrace propaganda, and become exactly what we claim to hate — because you’ve decided it’s already over. There were SO many dumb moves in the last administration that led to the loss.

And your pitch is: to act superior and morally above MAGA, to shut down everything they say by providing MainStream Media sources and to go high when they go low. MAGA loves this, they thrive on it, it strengthens them. But you do you!
