One of my tactics is to feign outrage about "something Biden did" and when the target agrees and shares my outrage, I say "oops, wait...that was actually Trump".

The squirming that follows is a delight to behold.

I've been doing this since November, now that I think about it. A simple conversation about the current news cycle at the time can raise many thoughts.

Same old propaganda tricks, different country. The Soviets never give up, even when they "no longer exist"...

So I can't deal with most of these people. Some are truly lost and need someone to help them think critically...lead them to the right conclusions. Most are absolutely willfully ignorant and won't believe anything you say because you are one of those evil libs.

Yes, they need to understand that we’re not the ones lying to them. This is the genesis of my “where’s your pony?” line. Ask that question to disarm. Then when they come back with “what the hell are you talking about?” say “didn’t he promise lower prices? No wars? Taking care of the everyday American? What has he ACTUALLY done for you?”

Every accusation they make is also a confession, which shows you they know full well what they’re doing.

I read BBC News, and I adjust it to calibrate the Anti-Americanism. I’m looking forward to unreliable news from BBC.
