      you’re wrong because you’re stupid is a much healthier way to debate idiotic conservatives who just try to waste your time and energy

        The problem is that they have a bunch of arguments that they think are so logical and amazing that if you do this. They will blame it on an unwillingness to debate and a lack of good arguments on your part. Which becomes a “radical leftist DISMANTLED by conservative student” video on YouTube with an AI thumbnail of you crying.

        Better to say “since you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about let me explain in simple words” you do this and then say “now if you don’t mind, I have more important things to do” and walk off.

        Important! Do not frame your argument in terms of kindness or empathy, but in terms of individual freedom and not wanting the government poking it’s nose where it shouldn’t belong. In other words use typically conservative devices to state your argument even if it sounds more stupid that way.

          Nah, trying to rationally argue against fascist trolls is a mistake. Do not take their arguments logically because their arguments are just weapons they wield. Just say that their arguments are excuses to seem superior, and that they aren’t because they’re ugly and pathetic mother fuckers.

          honestly. no conservative will ever change their minds unless they choose to do so.

          better to ignore them and build a better world without their input or consent. any energy and time wasted talking to them is energy and time that could have gone into something more productive.

          Wanking counts as more productive than arguing with conservative trolls.

            no conservative will ever change their minds unless they choose to do so.

            And very rarely will we on the left have our minds changed by a conservative. Not these days.
